Re: [flexcoders] Re: ContextMenuEvent on BarSeries - how can I access the item that was clicked on?

[Brian Dunphy]

I thought about that as well. I also thought about having a rollOver or mouseOver event on the bar series, and when the user hovered over a BarSeriesItem, I thought you could set a temporary variable with the hitData, and then when they right clicked on the context menu, you would know which one they are referring to.
I think the first idea holds more potential, as I could not find a way to get the hitData from the rollOver method either.I will definitely keep this thread updated with my progress as I do with all of my other questions on here... which I usually answer myself a few minutes later :)

            Not an answer, more of me commiserating with you. I ran into the same 
thing and spent a bit investigating it. Essentially it seems that 
it's 
(as you stated) that the series not the bar that gets and passes on 
the 
context menu call. I've got a message up on Actionscript.org asking 
around about it and if I hear anything I'll pass it on. And would be 
pleased if you would do likewise. 

Here's a kind of klugey idea I've been thinking about off and on in 
my 
head. If there is someway to tell where (x,y) the click was performed 
that brought up the context menu then a call to findDataPoints could 
be 
made and therefore you'd have a hitdata. But I've not really done any 
work on devising a way to figure that out.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Hopefully one of us will come up 
with 
an answer or workaround and pass it on.
