Skinning AIR application window

Question

Hi, I'm using mx:WindowedApplication, I'm wondering how I can skin the title bar and close/minimize button for the window. I can see application like Pandora One is using it and setting transparency. Any pointer to a doc? Thanks,

In your application.xml file, uncomment and set:

<systemChrome>none</systemChrome>

and

<transparent>true</transparent>

Then draw whatever you want for window controls. You'll have to implement your own dragging IIRC, as well as making the appropriate AIR API calls for minimize and maximize.
