I got this off the blogs but I can't seem to find the right TIME/TRIGGER in which to place this code. The key appears to be the one-liner about the height.
If you get this working can you send me your solution? And I'll do the same. -------------- FROM: http://blogs.adobe.com/flexdoc/charts/ The final example is a little different in that it applies the color to a single item in the series and not the entire series. I thought it was interesting, so I figure I'd share it. Instead of applying a style to the series, you set the fill property on the ColumnSeriesItem: var c:SolidColor = new SolidColor(cp.selectedColor); csi.fill = c; In addition, to get it to work requires a little workaround: You have to trigger a call to the series' updateDisplayList(). To do that, you just set a property on the itemRenderer, like this: csi.itemRenderer.height = csi.itemRenderer.height; ------------- --- In [email protected], Sam Lai <samuel....@...> wrote: > > Hi everyone, > > I've got a column chart that displays values for each day for say a > month.
