134 CheckBox component
Using skins with the CheckBox component
The CheckBox component uses symbols in the library to represent the button states. To skin
the CheckBox component while authoring, modify symbols in the Library panel. The
CheckBox component skins are located in the Flash UI Components 2/Themes/MMDefault/
CheckBox Assets/states folder in the library of either the HaloTheme.fla file or the
SampleTheme.fla file. For more information, see “About skinning components” in
Using Components.
A CheckBox component uses the following skin properties:
Each of these skins corresponds to the icon indicating the CheckBox state. The CheckBox
component does not have a border or background.
To create movie clip symbols for CheckBox skins:
1. Create a new FLA file.
2. Select File > Import > Open External Library, and select the HaloTheme.fla file.
This file is located in the application-level configuration folder. For the exact location on
your operating system, see “About themes” in Using Components.
3. In the theme’s Library panel, expand the Flash UI Components 2/Themes/MMDefault
folder and drag the CheckBox Assets folder to the library for your document.
