That said, if you really want to have the most control over what your button's looks like in different states, I recommend skinning them. To get started, check out Adobe's quickstart page on skinning: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/quickstart/skinning_components/ For more advanced skinning, especially for drawing skins, you might want to check out the Degrafa [http://www.degrafa.com] libraries. You can also create a class of skins for the button: [in the css file] .myButtonStyle{ skin: ClassReference("your.project.skins.MyButtonSkin"); } Then you would just define skins for all the states in that class. To go into the Degrafa skinning would really need another blog post and there's a lot of info already out there on that. Hope this helps! @ravi
