Description

The UIComponent defines the enabled property and has a [Inspectable] metadata tag attached to it. The SkinnableComponent inherits the enabled property and overrides the setter for the enabled property and does not specify any metadata along with the setter.

As a result of this, for components which inherit the SkinnableComponent, the enabled property's [Inspectable] metadata tag is taken as null. This is illustrated by the fact that for an mx:Button, the enabled property is listed under Common (general) properties and for an s:Button, the enabled property is listed under "Others" properties.
