RE: [flexcoders] Partial LineSeries - is it possible?
Geoff, Good call - that works perfectly - thanks!!!

You shouldn't need to do this. Try setting the minimum and maximum values on the date time axis to the desired dates and it should do the rest(regardless of which dates there are data for).

Thanks Richard, I'm going to give this a try - basically I'm going make placeholder data elements that map to my DateTimeAxis and fill in the remaining values for the decade.

I'm not sure I quite understand the question, but a couple of thoughts: - if you have a data function that returns null you can get gaps in a line chart, if that's desired - on the other hand, if your data provider filters out the empty data points, the chart should fill the available space - I think you might be able to have a separate data provider for the axis In other words, I would be surprised if custom renderers are necessary.
