I have a Flex 4/Blaze/Java application and would like to provide my users with a way to switch between several pre-determined skins. Does anyone have a good example of how to do this?
Ideally, the list of themes would be provided by the server -- where the themes are stored. Or do I have to compile in all possible themes into the swf ahead of time?
Check out runtime loading of style sheets.
You can package each style sheet with its skin classes in a swf that can be dynamically loaded by your application at run time using styleManager.loadStyleDeclarations("yourTheme.swf");
