Skinning

Flashcommander skins are loaded at runtime from the styles folder.
The default white skin is flashcommander_white.swf.

If you want use one of the other skins edit this line in config.xml:

<style> ../styles/flashcommander_black.swf </style>

Creating a new skin

First you have to create a css file. A good starting point is to edit one of the provided css files.

Flex StyleExplorer is a great tool for creating the css, download it here:

When your css is ready you have to compile it into an swf – there are 2 possibilities:

  1. If you have Adobe Flex Builder installed just right click on the css and choose “Compile CSS to SWF”
  2. Otherwise download and install the free Flex SDK,
    then open a command prompt and run: mxmlc flashcommander_skin.css

Copy the reulting swf to the styles folder and edit config.xml.
