Tree skinning

Question

Hi,
I created Tree component with XML data provider.
I want the open brunch and leafs have a different back-color
(some dark blue for the brunch and some pale blue for the leafs).
the Tree-class properties includ only select/non-select
styling.
I need a hint.
Thanks all

Here is a sample code
package
import mx.controls.treeClasses.TreeItemRenderer;
import mx.controls.treeClasses.TreeListData;
import flash.display.SpreadMethod;
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.display.Graphics;
public class CustomItemRenderer extends TreeItemRenderer
var background:Sprite;
override protected function createChildren():void
super.createChildren();
background = new Sprite;
addChildAt(background, 0);
override protected function updateDisplayList
(unscaledWidth:Number,
unscaledHeight:Number):void
super.updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight);
var gc:Graphics = background.graphics;
gc.clear();
if (TreeListData(listData).hasChildren)
gc.beginFill(0x0000FF, 0.5);
else
gc.beginFill(0x000088, 0.5);
gc.drawRect(0,0, unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight);
gc.endFill();
}
