(apologies if this is a double post--I'm having e-mail problems)
I'm getting the following stack trace when changing the layout of some
charts:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null
object reference.

Line 262 in ChartLabel.as is the following:
if(parent.rotation == 90 && parent is AxisRenderer)
which, combined with the error, seems to imply that this ChartLabel has
no parent (!), and I've confirmed this in the debugger. I searched
through my code and I'm not creating any ChartLabels directly. Any ideas
why this could be happening (I can't nail down a simple set of steps to
this)? Any thoughts for workarounds?
Thanks,
Maciek
