I would _not_ use databinding to bind the data into the chart...instead, add a change handler to your array collection, and when it fires, assign the collection explicitly as the dataProvider for the chart. Ely.

Ely - tnx for the help.. the data is retreived from a data-base by a server then i change it to an ArrayCollection which is an array of objects inside each object i got several values. here is a problem: the dataProvider is binded to this collection but because lack of synch the data is coming AFTER the chart is already rendered. meaning first come an empty chart only after comes the data (of course this happens too fast for the human eye). i want to format the data from the collection therefore i need to know when this collection is changed. i have some other ways to see when this happens, but... i want to know how can i do it from the chart side. --- In [email protected] <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> , "Ely Greenfield" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > Can you give more details about how you're using the chart? i.e., where > are you getting your data from, what kind of data, what form is it in > when you assign it to the chart, are you assigning it to the chart or > the data providers, etc. > > Ely. > > > ________________________________ > > From: [email protected] <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> [mailto:[email protected] <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> ] On > Behalf Of shemeshkale > Sent: Wednesday, December 13, 2006 11:05 AM > To: [email protected] <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> > Subject: [flexcoders] Re: does charts have event for data change? > > > > YES, that what i want!! > but how?? > like so?? : > myChart.dataProvider.addEventListener(CollectionEvent.COLLECTION_CHANGE, > test); > > it does not work either. > can you please show me how? an example would be great. > > --- In [email protected] <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> > , "Ely Greenfield" <egreenfi@> wrote: > > > > > > > > > > Add it to your data provider instead. > > > > Ely. > > > > > > ________________________________ > > > > From: [email protected] <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> > [mailto:[email protected] <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> > ] On > > Behalf Of shemeshkale > > Sent: Wednesday, December 13, 2006 4:10 AM > > To: [email protected] <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> > > Subject: [flexcoders] does charts have event for data change? > > > > > > > > as simple as that: > > does charts have an event that fires whenever its data changes? > > > > it seems that this: > > myGrid.addEventListener(CollectionEvent.COLLECTION_CHANGE, test); > > will work for DataGrid but not for charts > > > > any idea how to do this with charts? > > >
