Halo theme on a Spark component

Question

I have a Flex form made up mostly of MX components. Due to limitations with the MX mx.controls.ComboBox, I'd like to use the Spark control, spark.components.ComboBox. This works, except the Spark ComboBox sticks out visually because it doesn't use the Halo theme.

Is there a way to have the Spark ComboBox use the Halo theme?

Answer 1

I answered a similar question a while ago.

You could just set the default skin for your application to Hero instead of Spark. Assuming you're using Flash Builder:

1. Click on Project -> Properties.
2. Click Flex Theme from the properties list.
3. Expand Adobe Themes - Halo and select the Halo theme.
