Quick Tip: SimpleButton to SelectableButton
sk.yoz.ui.SelectableButton class may be handy for you if you decided to drop framework and make your own lightweight components. It extends SimpleButton (basic ActionScript 3 component) and ads selected state and toggle functionality by switching states on click event. You may want to extend it for selectedUpState, selectedOverState, selectedDownState, feel free to do that.
usage:
import sk.yoz.ui.SelectableButton;
// any graphics here
var upState:DisplayObject;
var overState:DisplayObject;
var downState:DisplayObject
var hitTestState:DisplayObject;
// changes selected state on mouse click
var toggle:Boolean = true;
var button:SelectableButton;
button = SelectableButton(upState, overState, downState, hitTestState, toggle);
// toggle select button without user interaction
button.selected = true;
