A patch (output of svn diff) to have two additional features:

(1) Resizable close button.

The old navigator has size hardcoded on 10 (pixels) those properties now are customizable.

It can be customized by using the patched flexlib and subclassing the SuperTabBar:

public class CustomSuperTabBar extends SuperTabBar {
public function CustomSuperTabBar() {
super();

    defaultTabProperties =  
        { 
        "closeButtonHeight": 17, 
        "closeButtonWidth": 17
        };
}

}

(2) Add a 'close all tabs' button in navigation bar (just left from popup button)

public class CustomSuperTabNavigator extends SuperTabNavigator {
public function CustomSuperTabNavigator() {
super();
// close all button is visible by default. If this is not desired, add:
// closeAllButtonEnabled = false;
}

override protected function createChildren():void {
    super.createChildren();
    closeAllButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,closeAllTabsHandler);
}

private function closeAllTabsHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {   
    // see SuperTabBar.onCloseTabClicked() how to close tabs...
    // you probably want to have a confirmation dialog before closing all.
}

}

Attached is the output of svn diff compared to trunk. Info and how it was generated:

Could this patch be merged into the trunk? If I get svn write access I'm willing to do this myself.

Thanks,
