It seems to me, that there is a bug/inconsistency (at least in Flexbuilder 3 and the Flex compiler it uses) between MXML and Actionscript 3 when it comes to LineSeries.showDataEffect. Or, I'm just missing or not understanding something.
For example, the following works for the showDataEffect property of LineSeries, no problem: <mx:LineSeries showDataEffect="{myEffect}" /> However, when you do the same with AS3, the compiler complains and codehinting for showDataEffect doesn't work: import mx.charts.series.LineSeries; //OK var myLineSeries:LineSeries = new LineSeries(); //OK myLineSeries.showDataEffect = myEffect; // <-- THIS BREAKS. WHY? When I say it breaks, I mean codehinting fails to find the showDataEffect property on LineSeries and the compiler complains there is no showDataEffect property on LineSeries. Is this a bug? I have googled it, and found others have had the same problem, but have not found any answers (neither did they). Any ideas? I need to do this dynamically with AS3 if possible, but this error or "bug" is stopping me. Thanks, Jason Merrill Bank of America
