Hi,

Just some advice from a fellow component dev.

                protected function setDefaultStyles ():void {
                        
                        var tg:Number = getStyle("titleGap");
                        if (!isNaN(tg))
                                _titleGap = tg;
                                
                        setStyle("titleGap", _titleGap);
                        
                        setStyle("borderStyle", "solid");
        setStyle("borderSkin", FieldSetBorder);


                }

I wouldn't use set style in your class. If some one wants to override that
style in a TypeSelector, they can't

IE

FieldSet {
  titleGap:30;
}

Since you already committed it on the instance, it's stuck without calling
setStyle() or clearStyle().

Try creating a static loader when the class is loaded, create the
TypeSelector FieldSet and create a default factory.

IE


   /**
    * @private
    */
   private static var stylesInited:Boolean = initStyles();

   /**
    * @private
    */
   private static function initStyles():Boolean
   {
       var styles:CSSStyleDeclaration =
           StyleManager.getStyleDeclaration(FieldSet');

       if (!selector)
       {
           styles= new CSSStyleDeclaration();
           StyleManager.setStyleDeclaration('FieldSet', styles, false);
       }

       styles.defaultFactory = function():void
       {
           this.titleGap= 10;
           this.borderStyle = "solid";
       }

       return true;
   }

I use a factory class to give me a new selector. Saves you from having to
write it over and over again.

IE

       var styles:CSSStyleDeclaration =
           FSCollectionDefaults.createSelector("FormItemFX");

Peace, Mike
