Is there a way in Flex by which a disabled canvas looks exactly the same as an enabled canvas? I haven't been able to make sense of disabledOverLayAlpha and disabledColor properties for a Canvas component.
@ Michael Todd: There are many imaginative ways to show disabled status rather than using the default disabled over colour. For instance, you may want to disable a Canvas, but would prefer the child components to be bound to their parent and display their disabled states rather than make light of a container that the user may not even know exists and may cover an inappropriate area in comparison to the content at any given time.
@ dta: I’m working with a Canvas that will be dynamically enabled/disabled right now, the disabledColor property does not effect the colour of the disabledOverlay, use backgroundDisabledColor instead, setting disabledOverlayAlpha to 0 does make the disabledOverlay entirely transparent – thus the enabled and disabled states of the component look exactly the same. The disabledColor property changes the colour used by the Canvas’s textFormater.
