Skylar Sutton commented on FLEX-35038: -------------------------------------- I smell what you're stepping in, but IMHO that's against the spirit of a "global" selector. Most people working with CSS are going to think of this in the same terms of HTML CSS selectors: 1. Browser Default 2. Global selector trumps #1 (browser) 3. Explicit style trumps #2 (global) > ToolTip does not honor global CSS fontSize > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: FLEX-35038 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-35038 > Project: Apache Flex > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Spark: ToolTip > Affects Versions: Apache Flex 4.14.1 > Reporter: Skylar Sutton > > Define a stylesheet using: > {code:title=CSS (Test 1)|borderStyle=solid} > global { > fontFamily: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; > fontSize: 16; > color: #333333; > } > mx|ToolTip { > backgroundColor: #FFFFE1; > backgroundAlpha: 1; > color: #000000; > dropShadowVisible: "true"; > } > {code} > Place a button on your application, assign it a tooltip, and observe that in > this test the tooltip's font size is not 16, as defined globally. > Modify the css to: > {code:title=CSS (Test 2)|borderStyle=solid} > global { > fontFamily: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; > fontSize: 16; > color: #333333; > } > mx|ToolTip { > backgroundColor: #FFFFE1; > backgroundAlpha: 1; > color: #000000; > dropShadowVisible: "true"; > fontSize: 16; > } > {code} > In this test, the tooltip's font will in fact be 16, as explicitly defined. > Test 2 is incorrect, as the ToolTip documentation states it will be affected > by the fontSize style, and that style was set globally: > {code:title=mx.controls.ToolTip.as} > package mx.controls > { > ... > //-------------------------------------- > // Styles > //-------------------------------------- > /* > Note: ToolTip is affected by the following styles: > backgroundColor > borderColor > borderStyle > color > fontFamily > fontSize > fontStyle > fontWidth > paddingBottom > paddingLeft > paddingRight > paddingTop > shadowColor (when borderStyle is "toolTip") > textAlign > textDecoration > */ > ... > {code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
