figured this out...
in the DateTimeAxis there is a method called buildLabelCache.
creating a class that extends DateTimeAxis and overriding
buildLabelCache like this:
override protected function buildLabelCache():Boolean {
var returnVal:Boolean = super.buildLabelCache();
if(labelCache.length == 1 && labelCache[0].text == "1/1/70")
labelCache.pop();
return returnVal;
}
If there is only one label and it is the default label (from a Date
object with time=0), removing it from the labelCache so it never gets
created.
