Re: [flexcoders] ErrorString and borderColor of controls not in sink
Have you tried calling either textArea.invalidateProperties() or textArea.invalidateDisplayList()? Im pretty sure that if you do that right after you set the error string, it will reset the border color Doug On Thu, May 30, 2013 at 12:03 PM, ilikeflex ilikef...@yahoo.com wrote: ** Hi When errorString of the component is any value(ex 'Enter the value') then the borderColor of the component changes to 'red'.

How can we make the border color to original when using errorString= for the first time even the control does not loose focus. I have attached sample of the problem.

Setting errorString only calls invalidateProperties. Not sure why. Did you try calling invalidateDisplayList as well?
