You want a BarChart. This won't compile (at least without warnings), but
it will get you pointed in the right direction:
var data:Array = [
{ name: "Bob", start: 1955, end: 1970},
{ name: "Sally", start: 1930, end: 1968}
]
<BarChart dataProvider="{data}">
<verticalAxis>
<CategoryAxis dataProvider="{data}"
categoryField="{name}" />
</verticalAxis>
<series>
<BarSeries yField="end" minField="start" />
</series>
</BarChart>

Subject: [flexcoders] Chart types (Flex 2)
Importance: High
I am looking to present graphically data on a list of baseball players
longevity at a club e.g all New York Yankees players who were at the
club at a particular date say 1960 would show those who had careers from
1955-1961 and 1960-1970 etc.
I want to have the y axis listing the player names and the x axis
showing years. The graph would show each players length of career as a
band
How would I best go about this in Flex 2. I have played around with the
hi-lo chart to some degree of success but that has the axes in the
opposite way to my requirements
Is there some standard chart I could use? The livedocs article on custom
charts has yet to be written
