Hey Doug! My Flex Idol...! (one of them) I'm familiar with your HSLIDER and others projects and have learned from them immensely. I figured out the Item Data Renderer for the HLOC Item Series. Not sure about posts etc. but I figured out the HLOC drawRect() issue below... If anyone wants to test it just bind an ArrayCollection to an HLOC Chart (or whatever) and use the Custom Data Renderer below as MXML>ItemRenders of HLOCSeries, it colors bars as green or red based on Open > Close or vice versa... but anyway, the issue with coloring the Close and Open bars regarding screen coordinate is that you have to subtract the HLOCSeriesItem.open from the HLOCSeriesItem.high = val:Number, then draw the rect at drawRect(val,0,length, weight) for both close and open ticks. Below it just uses the value of open or close item, which does not compute from the origin of the HLOCItemSeries for whatever reason... I am quite sure this is not documented anywhere.
Anyway, Doug, when I get to the W Coast we should get a beer.
