Note: Because you use CSS styles and class properties to control the appearance of the BorderContainer, you typically do not create a custom skin for it. If you do create a custom skin, your skin class should apply any styles to control the appearance of the container.
By default, the stroke of the border is rounded.
If you do not want rounded corners, set the joints property of
the stroke to JointStyle.MITER.
The BorderContainer container has the following default characteristics:
| Characteristic | Description |
|---|---|
| Default size | 112 pixels wide by 112 pixels high |
| Minimum size | 30 pixels wide by 30 pixels high |
| Maximum size | 10000 pixels wide and 10000 pixels high |
| Default skin class | spark.skins.spark.BorderContainerSkin |

This component uses skins made up of skin parts. Do not set the skin parts directly. The component's skin sets the skin parts.
To skin the component, implement a skin that defines the following states. Although you must implement all skin states, a skin state can be empty. An empty skin state specifies no changes to the default skin state.
| backgroundFill | property |
backgroundFill:IFill| Language Version : | ActionScript 3.0 |
