Hi Dan,
I don't have any experience with charting components, but is there a
way to test if the effects are triggered? Do you need to use an
ArrayCollection instead of a plain array to manipulate the series
information? I believe this makes a difference with binding-related
behaviours.
Cheers,
Lach

Hi All
I'm sorry to post this twice, but still no nearer to a solution, I'm
having a few problems assigning data effects to a dynamically
generated column series, while I can create a new series dynamically
ok, just don't seem to be able to get the showDataEffect to work, a
cut down version of the code that I'm using is below;
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml";
layout="absolute">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.controls.CheckBox;

// the datasource
[Bindable]
public var rs:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([
{label:'Record One', interval1:20, interval2:30, interval3:40},
{label:'Record Two', interval1:37, interval2:56, interval3:41},
{label:'Record Three', interval1:10, interval2:15, interval3:79}]) ;
/**

[EMAIL PROTECTED] Object - the checkbox event
*/
public function appendInterval(column:String):void
{
var series:ColumnSeries = new ColumnSeries() ;
series.xField = 'label' ;
series.yField = column ;
series.setStyle("showDataEffect", slideIn);
series.setStyle("hideDataEffect", slideOut);
var currentSeries:Array = resultchart.series;
currentSeries.push(series) ;
resultchart.series = currentSeries ;
}

width="100%" height="100%">

Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong? Again, very sorry for the
double post
Regards
Dan
