Currently the only work around I have is to remove the LegendItem's from
the Legend and add new ones, such as:
var item:LegendItem = null;
var newItem:LegendItem = null;
for (var i:int = chartLegend.numChildren -1; i >= 0;
i--)
{
item = chartLegend.getChildAt(i) as LegendItem;
if ( item == null )
{
continue;
}
newItem = new LegendItem();
newItem.label = item.label;
newItem.setStyle("fill", fillFunction(
chartSeries.items[i], i ));
chartLegend.removeChildAt( i );
chartLegend.addChildAt( newItem, i );
}
Maybe this is a bug, since it appears that the LegendItem "fill"
property doesn't update in the UI.
