Hi Thunder. It was, in fact, removed in beta 3.  It was removed based on
scheduling and resource concerns. It is an oft-requested feature, but we
just didn't have the resources to test it to the level of quality we'd
be comfortable shipping with. Expect to see it in a future release.

Click-based selection would actually be pretty easy for you to implement
yourself.  Using the itemClick event, you could very easily track a
concept of 'current selected item.'  If you wanted multiple selection,
you could read the state of the shift/control key in the event, and
add/remove to a concept of 'current selected items(s).'  Using a simple
custom renderer, you could render the item differently if it is in the
'selected items' set.

The part that would be very hard to implement externally would be region
based selection. That relied on a method each series had to implement
independently that calculated the set of items that intersected a region
on screen. 

Ely.

Subject: [flexcoders] Beta3 - Chart Selection functionality removed?

Hi all,

I think way back in the alpha, it was mentioned that item selection
functionality might be going away on the chart components... did this
finally happen for Beta3? I'm getting errors around all my selection
code (.selectionMode, selectedItems[], etc)

If this was removed, can you enlighten us as to why? Was it technical
difficulties or lack of demand for the functionality?

If we want/need to implement this ourselves, based on your experience
with it (from the previous beta/alpha) How would we approach this?

Thanks in advance,
Thunder
