RE: [flexcoders] custom outlined pie labels

[Ely Greenfield]

Yeah, custom label renderers was considered for 2.0, but got pulled from the schedule at some point.  I'll make a note of your vote though ;)   Even with them though, your approach is more performant.  Putting a filter on the entire set of labels at once is better than labels on each individual label.     You should be able to just set the fontSize style of the pieseries.   Ely.   From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Pan Troglodytes Sent: Thursday, September 28, 2006 12:06 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] custom outlined pie labels Thanks Ely.  Would be nice in a future release to more easily fiddle with the series labels. On a related note, how would you go about changing the font size for the pie labels?  I've tried a lot of different things, none of which worked.

The PieSeries currently always creates a label layer, and never recreates it, so at least for now that should be Copacetic.   Ely.   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]ups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]ups.com] On Behalf Of Pan Troglodytes Sent: Thursday, September 28, 2006 9:29 AM To: flexcoders Subject: [flexcoders] custom outlined pie labels I'm making an outline around my pie labels using the following code for the pie chart: public function creationComplete():void {   UIComponent(labelElements[0]).filters =     [new DropShadowFilter(1, 0, 0xFFFFFF, 1, 0, 0),     new DropShadowFilter(1, 90, 0xFFFFFF, 1, 0, 0),     new DropShadowFilter(1, 180, 0xFFFFFF, 1, 0, 0),     new DropShadowFilter(1, 270, 0xFFFFFF, 1, 0, 0)]; } Is there anything about this that's not kosher?  I suppose I could put a check in for labelElements.length != 0, but this isn't really for general purpose use.  Are there any situations in a pie chart where this could blow up? -- Jason -- Jason __._,_.___ -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com SPONSORED LINKS Software development tool Software development Software development services Home design software Software development company Your email settings: Individual Email|Traditional Change settings via the Web (Yahoo!
