Ok, I have the revenue part working and formatting it. Thank you.
But, I
cannot get the MONTH to show. Month is my
categoryField.
categoryField="month:"
Below is what I have
for my formatDataTip, but I cannot seem to find
the MONTH. I have tried
useing hitData.element and hitData.item.
I thought it would be
LineSeriesItem(hitData.chartItem).xValue, but
that just gives me 0,
1, 2, n.... (guessing it is the position of data
in the ArrayCollection I am
using to populate my graph.
Any suggestions?
private function
formatDataTip(hitData:HitData):String{
//var months:String =
LineSeries(hitData.element);//Not working
var name:String =
LineSeries(hitData.element).yField;
var revenue:Object =
LineSeriesItem(hitData.chartItem).yValue;
return
"<b>"+name+"</b><br>"+months+"<br>"+cf.format(revenue);
}
