I beleive thses examples are not RIM specific, i.e. are for Midlets.  AFAIK, you can't mix MIDlet and RIM Ui in the one application.

Hi Dan

you can override the paint method and do painting your self. For handling focus you need to override drawFocus() method.

Thanks

I am new to development.

Please give exmaples or links to backup your statement. Otherwise you may as well be speaking in a language I dont understand.

Thanks nikhill

But i think Peter is right in saying that you cannot use UI compnonents from MIDLet API with UI components in RIM API.

but still thanks

Hi dankolix,

Have you looked at the CustomButternsDemo that comes with the JDE or Component packs for the Eclipse Plug-in? Not sure of the lowest OS version it comes with though, been using 5.0 exclusively.

As for the Gradient, this might be of some use, http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Java-Development/Example-gradient-filled-rounded-rectangle-wi...

I hope this helps.

Good Luck,

Thanks Brent !

The plugin for eclipse  version I am using is 4.5.0 but i'll check to see if the CustomButtonsDemo exists in it.

Also the link you posted does look helpful..

To that effect here is a Kudo

Thanks for the help
