Changed the namespace to Adobe and the .as class was trying to import flash.util.* I assume you mean utils.* but it just comes up blank now, if i comment out <mx:Style.. tho the component obviously appears.

It's really good to see both sides of the story and see all potential designer - developer integration scenarios. I was particularly interested in seeing the differences with Flex 1.5 programmatic skins. I created exactly this programmatic Trio skin last year in Flex 1.5 but hadn't studied the new Flex 2 architecture. I'm really pleased to see that's been improved a lot and requires less 'ugly' code to get something nice to render on the screen. No more symbolName, symbolOwner, UIObjectExtensions and _global.skinRegistry uglyness ;-) Nice article Kevin.
