Hmm... - add a mouse down handler to the series. - on mouse down, add mouse move/up handlers - on mouse move, figure out how much the mouse has moved - do a localToData on the left side of the chart plus the delta, and the right side of the chart plus the delta. - those are your new min/max data values. Ely.

If your drag updates your slider, then you can use the properties in the Slider class for snapping to values. Changing the horizontalGap, dividerAffordance, etc... in the HDividedBox on the bottom chart should get the visual appearance you want. The one thing I was pondering over was dragging the main chart (like google finance does). Ely, can you shed some light on the best way to accomplish this?

I need to know whether I should attempt modification of what you've made, or use another combination of components.

Use a two-button horizontal slider, and draw a transparent rectangle over the chart based on the sliders values. -- Tom Chiverton Helping to enormously industrialize cross-platform e-tailers On: http://thefalken.livejournal.com <http://thefalken.livejournal.com> **************************************************** This email is sent for and on behalf of Halliwells LLP.
