Hey all, I want to create a date range component similar to Google's Finance flash stuff, but with a few differences. Here is a screenshot of what I am hoping to create.
http://sleekgeek.com.au/daterange_example.gif I need some guidance on how to structure the component (as I'm a newbie to Flex custom component dev). Eg. Should I use composition of a few charts and a draggable invisible button placed inside a canvas? I had an idea of having two AreaCharts, one that is greyed out and the other that is coloured, and have a mask to only display the portion that is required? I have read Ely's blog article on the datadrawingcanvas and think this might help as well. Any ideas? Cheers, Adam
