I was able to get the alternating row color but now I also get an
extra line right in the middle of the last bar item. It falls
behind the bar but right down the middle of that area. Has anyone
else seen this happen? I also tried using the ActionScript methond
of adding the color and got the same result.
Here's how I'm doing the color --
<mx:Array id="bge">
<mx:GridLines direction="horizontal">
<mx:horizontalStroke>
<mx:Stroke weight="1" color="#C2D1E1"/>
</mx:horizontalStroke>
<mx:horizontalFill>
<mx:SolidColor color="#EEF3F7" alpha="1"/>
</mx:horizontalFill>
</mx:GridLines>
</mx:Array>
<!-- -->
<mx:BarChart id="barchart1" width="100%" height="100%"
dataProvider="{chartData}" showDataTips="true"
dataTipFunction="formatDataTip" backgroundElements="{bge}"
itemClick="getInfo(event.hitData.item)">
...
</mx:BarChart>
