Hiya,
I ran into what seems to be the exact same issue with a dashboard app that I'm
developing. I worked with the Flex team at Adobe and was able to isolate this
behavior to a problem with the label styles not getting passed correctly when
using RSL's for the frameworks.
The solution was to declare a contextualClassFactory instantiated on a subclass
of Label and then pass this contextualClassFactory instance to the vertical and
horizontal axis renderers which resolved the issue for me.
Hopefully you're generating your chart in actionscript since I haven't tried
doing any of this directly in MXML.
I tried to attach the project archive for the test case that I was using to
demonstrate this issue to the Flex team but couldn't seem to find a way to
attach it.
If you need some further info shoot me a message with your email and I can send
you the project archive that shows the fix directly.
Otherwise here's a rough couple of steps that I followed:
1) Declare a class extending label like this:
package
{
import mx.controls.Label;
public class MyTextField extends Label
{
public function MyTextField()
{
super();
}
override public function set data(value:Object):void{
super.data = value;
text = value.text;
}
}
}
2) Setup a contextualClassFactory referencing this class:
var ccClassFactory:ContextualClassFactory = new
ContextualClassFactory(MyTextField);
ccClassFactory.moduleFactory=this.moduleFactory;
3) Reference the contextualClassFactory when declaring the axisRenderers:
var hAxisRenderer:AxisRenderer = new AxisRenderer();
hAxisRenderer.axis = hAxis;
hAxisRenderer.labelRenderer=ccClassFactory;
var vAxisRenderer:AxisRenderer = new AxisRenderer();
vAxisRenderer.axis = vAxis;
vAxisRenderer.labelRenderer=ccClassFactory;
4) Tie the renderers to your chart:
myChart.horizontalAxis=hAxis;
myChart.verticalAxis=vAxis;
myChart.horizontalAxisRenderers = [ hAxisRenderer ];
myChart.verticalAxisRenderers = [ vAxisRenderer ];
Hope that helps, I know I've been banging my head on this for weeks!
