Hi Team, This is the approach I took to integrate Callout to spark: - pushed s:Callout and related classes from mobilecomponents to spark - copied the mobile skins to spark - create a new base class that monkey patch MobileSkin in spark ( could serve for other components as well) - changed the default css colors and settings.
Here is a simple demo app that shows the result. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/12169005/ApacheFlex/DesktopCalloutDemo.swf Note: I tried with a lighter background, but it does not look well, because it's missing an 1 pixel dark outline. Note2: does applicationDPI make sense also on desktop apps (maybe with Macbook retina displays) ? You feedback is welcome.
