Question

how can I remove the space between my video and control bar… I tried to change margin and padding to all element without success. There is still a thin white space above the controls.

<mx:VideoDisplay id="videoD" autoPlay="{autoPlayOption}" source="{videoPath}" playheadUpdate="playUpdate()" click="togglePlay()" />

    <mx:HBox width="{videoD.width}" styleName="controlsBar" paddingBottom="0" paddingLeft="0" paddingRight="0" paddingTop="0">

        <mx:Button id="playB" icon="{playImg}" width="8" height="14" click="togglePlay()"/>

        <mx:HSlider id="slider" minimum="0" maximum="{videoD.totalTime}"
                height="12"
                width="{videoD.width - 58} "
                dataTipPlacement="top" 
                allowTrackClick="true" 
                liveDragging="false"
                showTrackHighlight="true"  
                click="isDragging=true;"
                mouseUp="seek()"
                sliderThumbClass="BigThumbClass"
        />

        <mx:Button id="fullB" icon="{fullscreen}" width="10" height="17" click="fullScreen()"/>

        <mx:Button id="volumeB" icon="{volumeOn}" width="14" height="14" click="toggleVolume()"/>

    </mx:HBox>

Is all this set in a VBox? adding
vertical-gap : 2;

to a VBox style might fix this. also if you’re using absolute height, adding clipContent = false to the box containing your slider might help too.
