Go to
http://www.infosoftglobal.com/FusionCharts/Gallery.asp?gMenuItemId=3#ps
and click on the charts under "2D/3D Column Charts".  You'll see the
animations I mean.  And if you click on the "FusionCharts Presentation
Suite", you'll see what my boss REALLY went wild for.  They use Flash
to put a bit of Powerpoint-ish pizazz into the charts.  Not really my
thing as I'm more of a usability guy, but it does impress the suits.

I managed to get the label rotation working.  The help for
"labelRotation" under mx.charts.AxisRenderer should have a big bold
reference to the embedding thing.  I went there first and only figured
out the problem when I finally went to the "Rotating axis elements"
example page.  I think it's a good way to do it, but you have to admit
that it's a bit of a learning curve compared to just setting a label
rotation property and having it always work.

I hear what you're saying about time.  I wish Adobe would put some
more people on Flex to just write examples and such.  One good example
is worth a whole page of documentation.  Of course, that can get
problematic when you're still redesigning some of it as you go along.  :D
