Mabye you could use the 'labelRenderer' setter of your AxisRenderer to pass a renderer that fits your needs. You have to implement the renderer by yourself. It works similiar to a 'itemRenderer'
Here you could find some details [1] HTH, Olaf [1] http://flexcoders.10928.n7.nabble.com/Ely-How-do-you-wordwrap-a-label-on-a-bar-chart-td8090.html [2] Extract from [1]: A more involved method would be to use a labelRenderer (similar to the following), for the AxisRenderer. For word-wrap, you would change the _label variable type from Label to UITextField or TextArea; and set the desired styles and properties. Caveat: I've found that if the entire view is using a show effect (like yours), the app locks-up (probably asking the player to do too much). Also, if you use a showDataEffect on a series of a chart, the effect doesn't play if you use a labelRenderer. //___________________________________ <mx:verticalAxisRenderer> <mx:AxisRenderer labelRenderer="view.chart.MyAxisLabelRenderer"/> </mx:verticalAxisRenderer> //___________________________________ package view.chart { import mx.core.UIComponent; import mx.core.IDataRenderer; import mx.charts.AxisLabel; import mx.controls.Label; public class MyAxisLabelRenderer extends UIComponent implements IDataRenderer { private var _axisLabel:AxisLabel; private var _label:Label; public function MyAxisLabelRenderer():void { super(); _label = new Label(); addChild(_label); } public function get data():Object { return _axisLabel; } public function set data(value:Object):void { if (_axisLabel == value) return; _axisLabel = AxisLabel(value); if(_chartItem != null) { _label.text = AxisLabel(_axisLabel).text.toString(); } } override protected function updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth:Number,unscaledHeight:Number):void { super.updateDisplayList(unscaledWidth, unscaledHeight); _label.setStyle("textAlign","right"); _label.width = 200; //this could be dynamic; based on the gutter size _label.setActualSize(_label.getExplicitOrMeasuredWidth(),_label.getExpli\ citOrMeasuredHeight()); _label.move(-200,-6); //this could be dynamic; based on the gutter size } } } -- View this message in context: http://apache-flex-users.2333346.n4.nabble.com/BarChart-Y-Axis-Label-Issue-tp13479p13480.html Sent from the Apache Flex Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
