I'm working on a connector using the Xcelsius SDK. In the event of an error that i need to inform the user, i use mx.controls.Alert to display the message. However, the styling for this control makes it unreadable. So I've decided to popup my own custom title window instead and apply my own styling. However, this too is not working. The styling of the popup window is unreadable as well.
I'm starting to wonder if i'm going about this the right way. I noted in the XML Data connector the error messages are presented with a nice popup. Should I be throwing a certain exception to the SDK so my message appears in this formatted box? Or should I be creating my own like I attempted to do. If I'm to create my own, how can I properly style it? The normal methods used in the Flex 2.0.1 SDK are not working with the Xcelsius SDK.
Thanks,
Chris
