You might want to change the appearance of components as you use them in different applications. There are three ways to accomplish this in Macromedia Flash MX 2004 and Macromedia Flash MX Professional 2004:
The Styles API (application programming interface) has methods and properties that allow you to change the color and text formatting of a component.
A theme is a collection of styles and skins that make up a component's appearance.
Skins are symbols used to display components. Skinning is the process of changing the appearance of a component by modifying or replacing its source graphics. A skin can be a small piece, like a border's edge or corner, or a composite piece like the entire picture of a button in its up state (the state in which it hasn't been pressed). A skin can also be a symbol without a graphic, which contains code that draws a piece of the component.
