Fri, 18 January 2008 TODD: Ever tried to customize the look of a component, only to find that it's
just about as hard as creating a component from scratch? Well, that's
not the case with Flash CS3. In this movie, Todd shows you how to skin
components in Flash CS3 using the new streamlined method. Comments[5] |
I can't double click the component like you did?! Nothing happens when I double click the component and I've even tried right clicking the component in the library to see if the Edit option is available ... but it is grayed out.
I'm wondering why you were able to do this and I wasn't. (I'm using Flash CS3.) hmmm

It should work just fine in Flash CS3. Try making sure you are using an ActionScript 3.0 Flash File and not ActionScript 2.0. ActionScript 2.0 Components don't support double click editing. Hope that helps!

hi men of genius!
i am playing around with the things seen in your tutorial, but one thing i can't seem to be able to achieve: how do i use an existing image (psd, jpg whatever; imported into library) as a scrollbar thumb icon? everytime i try, the image is blown out of proportion (stretched vertically bad time).
help - this could make my year!

It should work ok if you just put that image inside of a Movie Clip symbol. That's the solution to tons of problems in Flash.
