I couldn't find that info either. The solution I'm using, until I
learn of a more direct way, is to assign a number to the ColumnSeries
Name property when I create each ColumnSeries (I happen to use
"Series0", "Series1", "Series2", etc).
Here's the relevant code fragmants for creating, and then accessing
the column number.
// Creating the columns
private const SeriesName:String = "Series";
for (var c:int = 1; c < seriesCount; c++) {
var cs:ColumnSeries = new ColumnSeries();
cs.name = SeriesName + id; // "Series0", "Series1", "Series2",etc
etc...
}
// Accessing the clicked column's data
public function chartItemSelected (e:ChartItemEvent):void
{
// extract the number after "Series"
var str:String =
e.hitData.chartItem.element.name.substr(SeriesName.length,
e.hitData.chartItem.element.name.length);
var colNum:Number = parseInt(str);
}
Hope that helps, and/or we learn of a better way.
