    <p>I have been following a good tutorial about creating a Button skin that allows you to use the same skin with different images:</p> <p><a href="http://brianackermann.wordpress.com/2010/05/06/flex-4-reusable-icon-button-skins/#expandSource" rel="nofollow">http://brianackermann.wordpress.com/2010/05/06/flex-4-reusable-icon-button-skins/#expandSource</a></p> <p>After a couple of minor changes it worked well, but when I use the same class, skin &amp; images in another project the images always look blended or transparent. I have tried adjusting image blendmode settings and alpha in the skin, app and stylesheet.</p> <p>The 2 green images should match, as should the white ones. The buttons are the blue squares:</p> <p><a href="http://i.stack.imgur.com/V8YZs.jpg" rel="nofollow"><strong>http://i.stack.imgur.com/V8YZs.jpg</strong></a></p> <p>The background XX's are to show where the images should be opaque</p> <p>Any ideas?</p> <p>(Edit, separating this part from post to avoid confusion after it was solved in comments): There was an error because the Label in my skin did not have an <strong>id=“LabelDisplay”</strong>. The button in the downloaded tutorial project did not need this. Once I added the <strong>id=“LabelDisplay”</strong> this part was solved.</p>

    1. CO1./ Though I can see you try to explain your issue as well as you can, it's still to vague to be able to make any suggestions (for me anyway). 2./ Since Flex 4.5 the Button class has an `icon` style built-in, so that makes that tutorial kind of obsolete.

    2. COSorry I could not be more specific, but I have no idea what could cause this. Masking? Blending? Is it inherited? Flex version differences? Options? Etc! I found Flex's icon handling minimal, eg, you cannot control the icon's size. The tutorial shows you how to create & pass your own arguments, eg, you could add a Glow filter to the image in the skin and create arguments for the Glow colour & strength to control from your app:

    3. COIf you need that amount of control, I tend to create custom skins rather than generic ones (that's just my approach of course). As for your real question, here are some guesses: 1./ regarding `labelDisplay`: it is not a required skinPart in Flex 4.5 and up, but it could be that it was required in earlier versions (which I don't have lying around anymore to verify); this would explain any differences there. 2./ regarding the colors: it seems like some kind of `BlendMode` is applied, but perhaps a screenshot would say more than your description.

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
