Not quite straightforward, but it still works: // chart is the chart you want to display the datatip on // xValue and yValue are the item's values on the x and y axis
var p:Point = chart.dataToLocal(xValue, yValue); var m:MouseEvent = new MouseEvent(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER, true, false, p.x, p.y); chart.dispatchEvent(m); Dirk. > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Claude Hussenet > Sent: Tuesday, May 01, 2007 6:09 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [flexcoders] How to display Chart datatip at a > specific data point ? > > Problem: > I would like to display chart datatip from a set of datapoint > without doing a mouse over. > > It seems that I have to overwrite the findDataPoints method > from ChartBase and returns an array of HitData points. > > I can not figure out how to create a HitData object from a > specific datapoint regardless of the position of the mouse. > > Maybe a new method such as showDataTip on chartBase taking as > parameter an array of indexes defining the datapoint from the > dataprovider object could be helpfull. > > Thx for any hints. > > Claude Hussenet > > > > > > > > > -- > Flexcoders Mailing List > FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt > Search Archives: > http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com > Yahoo!
