This application lists all of the styles available to the Tree component. The code and a detailed description for each style is in the attached ActionScript file. In addition it shows you how to reset each of the styles you have set. This project is setup in such a way that you can replace this component with another component and the supported styles will still work.

Skinning Methods
The project also contains links to additional documentation showing you different skinning methods available to you.
The list of links will show you more in depth examples of:

Using ActionScript to Skin
Using Graphics to Skin
Using Styles to Skin
Using Themes to Skin
Using initObject to Skin

Note: When Flash MX 2004 came out the documentation on component skinning and styles was partially incomplete. Since the 7.2 update they have added more material. Review the help information as well as the comments on the livedocs.
