Hey Bob,
Good meeting you at the AZFPUG meeting last night. Looks like labelPosition defaults to "none" on a BarSeries. Try setting that to something else: <mx:BarSeries labelFunction="myLabelFunction" labelPosition="outside" yField="Month" xField="Profit"/> HTH, Ryan From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:flexcod...@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Bob Wohl Sent: Thursday, February 26, 2009 11:57 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] labelFunction on BarSeries not firing Hello all, I'm not to sure why this isn't firing. I've broke this down to the simplest of forms and even used some very basic examples to reproduce. For some reason the labelfunctiojn never gets hit, maybe I'm missing something very simple. My stacked charts and pie charts fire just fine, seems to only be the bar chart that I'm having this issue with. Any Ideas would be much appreciated. code : <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"> <mx:Script><![CDATA[ import mx.charts.ChartItem; import mx.charts.chartClasses.Series; import mx.collections.ArrayCollection; [Bindable] public var expenses:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([ {Month:"Jan", Profit:2000, Expenses:1500}, {Month:"Feb", Profit:1000, Expenses:200}, {Month:"Mar", Profit:1500, Expenses:500} ]); private function myLabelFunction(element:ChartItem, series:Series):String { trace("should fire") var str:String = "hello!" return str; } ]]></mx:Script> <mx:BarChart id="theChart" dataProvider="{expenses}" showDataTips="true" width="780"> <mx:verticalAxis> <mx:CategoryAxis categoryField="Month" /> </mx:verticalAxis> <mx:series> <mx:BarSeries labelFunction="myLabelFunction" yField="Month" xField="Profit"/> </mx:series> </mx:BarChart> </mx:Application> Thanks in Advance!
