Hi Graham,
Isn't that similar to the example in the docs here:

Subject: [flexcoders] Re: Custom Component Styles
It would appear the link I gave is broken. But nevermind, I have
found the solution by delving through the framework source code, where
the developers do it differently from what is documented in the Live
Docs.
The solution is to use something along the lines of:
private static var stylesInitialised:Boolean = initStyles();
private static function initStyles():Boolean {
var sd:CSSStyleDeclaration =
StyleManager.getStyleDeclaration(AreaZoom);
if (!sd)
{
sd = new CSSStyleDeclaration();
StyleManager.setStyleDeclaration(AreaZoom, sd, false);
}
sd.defaultFactory = function():void
{
this.borderColour = 0x017C98;
this.borderAlpha = 1;
this.fillColour = 0x96CEFD;
this.fillAlpha = 0.2;
}
return true;
}

I have been looking through the Adobe documentation for a few hours
now and have no suggestion of how to achieve what I want to do. I
have a custom component that has some custom style attributes. I
would like these style attributes to have default values. So, I
followed what is described in the Live Docs
(http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/201/html/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp.h

http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/201/html/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp.h
tm?href=Part2_DevApps_048_1.html ).
All is fine and dandy, except for a (rather major?) problem. This
method of setting defaults forces someone using the component to set
all the style values or none, because if they set a single style
attribute the default values are not set for any of the other
attributes. Am I missing something or is this styling malarky
complicated?
Cheers,
Graham
