? I'm just starting on doing this - but it seems to me that you need to scroll one of the groups. Maybe that's because I am creating it so the rounded corners can be at the to top or bottom. So clipping the square rect to half way, moving it down, and scrolling it down would show only the bottom half. - which means that effectively the graphic has the same rect but the group windows are different? This means that the gradients can be made identical.... wip...
Erm, the graphics would have the same rect, but the 'inner' groups are each > half of the full height of the 'outer' custom control group, thus clipping > their content (use 'lockLocation' to prevent them from resizing to the > bounds of the graphic they contain). > Harald, maybe something like this could work, when mixed with Jans version? That is the overlying graphic rectangle can be clipped and scrolled to mask a single corner of the underlying roundrect graphic. Duplicating this would allow you to individually bevel any corner - not sure but I think for the same reasons as above the gradients would match up when duplicated?

On a similar vein I came across a large set of svg icons, and was thinking wouldn't it be nice to import these and have them as native LiveGode graphics - putting the two ideas together you should be able to set the border of a group to that of a graphic object? set the shape of control x to the shape of graphic 1?
