Setting a style for all instances of a component

You can set a style for all instances of a component class using the static setComponentStyle() method of the StyleManager class. For example, you can set the color of text to red for all Buttons by first dragging a Button to the Stage and then adding the following ActionScript code to the Actions panel on Frame 1 of the Timeline:

import fl.managers.StyleManager;
import fl.controls.Button;

var tf:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
tf.color = 0xFF0000;
StyleManager.setComponentStyle(Button, "textFormat", tf);

All Buttons that you subsequently add to the Stage will have red labels.
