I always forget this one so I decided to post it…wanna remove the default blue-gray background from your flex apps and make it the same color as your actual application?
Just put in the -default-background-color compiler switch and provide a hex color — I use white in the following example.
(Thanks for SWF MetaData reminder Ben: Return Undefined and soon migrating to Ben-Clinkenbeard-dot-com)
Ant MXMLC
<mxmlc>
...
<default-background-color>0xFFFFFF</default-background-color>
....
</mxmlc>
Flex Builder -> Project Properties -> Compiler Options -> Additional compiler arguments:
-default-background-color #FFFFFF
SWF MetaData
[SWF( backgroundColor="#FFFFFF" )]

You can also do this from within your code using the SWF metadata tag. [SWF( backgroundColor="#63861D" )]
