[flexcoders] Event mask issue for charts

2006-06-27 Thread dave_bonnell_bmc
We have an application in which we create multiple pods within a 
VDividedBox container.  Each pod is essentially a HBox with two 
charts (mx:BarChart and mx:PieChart) for arguments sake.

When a pod is deleted from the container the vertical area of charts 
in the remaining child pods that responds to mouse over and clicks 
is diminished by around the height that the child gained.

For example, if there were three pods and one was removed then each 
child gains roughly 1/2 of the height of the removed pod and it is 
roughly this area from the bottom of the chart (above the axis) that 
no longer responds to mouse over and mouse click events.

The problem goes away when adding a new pod.

Using a VBox instead of VDividedBox makes no difference.  Decreasing 
the size of the last pod very small using the grips of the 
VDividedBox causes the same symptoms.

Calling invalidateLayout, invalidateSize, layoutChildren, measure on 
the container and all of the pods has no effect, resetting their 
height to 100% has no affect.  All of the same on the two charts 
within the pod has no effect.

It appears to be a problem in the way the chart components are 
calculating the area of the chart that should respond to mouseOver 
and click events.

Any ideas, suggestions on possible workarounds, etc. very much 
appreciated.
