yep. that's it - incorrect namespace. but I've hit another problem... performance on drawing it, esp compared to the origional version.
*really* noticable. I must be asking a lot from the framework to do this, unless I'm not doing it the _best_ way? <BarChart id="chart" width="100%" height="100%" dataProvider="{dataSet.Sample}"> <series> <BarSet type="stacked"> <BarSeries xField="costs" itemRenderer="examples.customizing.LabeledRenderer2" /> <BarSeries xField="overhead" itemRenderer="examples.customizing.LabeledRenderer2" /> <BarSeries xField="oneTime" itemRenderer="examples.customizing.LabeledRenderer2" /> </BarSet> </series> <verticalAxis> <CategoryAxis categoryField="month" /> </verticalAxis> </BarChart>
