Yeah, I remember reading that, I was a bit confused and didn't have time to ask a question. Now that you have brought it up though, I think your answer is the theme compiler argument.
If you compile that css sheet into the same swc file along with the VideoControl.as class, in the Application, set the -theme compiler argument to the swc that holds the css file that is with your custom component. Let me know if that makes sense. Peace, Mike On 06 Mar 2007 10:59:31 -0800, Muzak <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

I'm not really worried about design view, hardly ever use it ;-) Right now I'm more interested in how to apply/adjust my current workflow, the one I'm used to in AS2, when it comes to components. Stuff is easy with mxml, which is what I've been doing mostly. But now I'd like to do all that in AS3. Have you seen my previous question regarding skins + css + swc? http://www.nabble.com/graphical-skinning---css---swc-tf3337261.html regards, Muzak
