[flexcoders] Regarding Chart problem
Hi All, We are facing a strange problem in our application. Reproducing the same problem is very easy with following steps: Open the dashboard sample provided with Flex Builder. Open results.xml file which has data to render. Except for one month remove all data from the xml. Final results.xml should look like - Europe" revenue="106976"/> Japan" revenue="79554"/> Latin America" revenue="39252"/> North America" revenue="128351"/> Now run the application again. You will neither see the point on the chart as well in data grid. For line chart I can understand the problem in plotting single point but data grid should show the single month data. Please confirm the right behavior and tell me if there is a work-around.

[flexcoders] DateTimeAxis question for Charts
Hello everybody, I am trying to get a timeline chart. For this my requirement use case is as follows – Input data – Date Count 5/1/06 10:00 500 5/1/06 17:00 232 5/2/06 19:00 400 5/4/06 13:00 158 5/8/06 16:00 168 5/9/06 14:00 175 5/9/06 11:00 236 I get above data from a database query. I send this data to flex client using XML. I want a chart which shows hourly chart for the week. Now as you can see for many hours there is no data available. Still, I want flex should show that those hours are having zero data. If I use date time axis, it displays the tool tips for the items for which the count is available. If the count is not available then it displays nothing. I can fill the gaps by Java code, but you can see there will be around 24 x 7 hours entries out of which most will carry zero count. It will not only increase the XML size but the number of elements to process. Can I avoid this? Can anybody help?

[flexcoders] Flex Charting Beta 3

RE: [flexcoders] Dynamically scaling a custom component
Hi, Instead of redirecting it, can you send a confirmation XML? Depending on the contents of the XML flex application will change the state of application to logged in state. That way, your application will can display the controls which you were supposed to display on the redirected screen. Does that make any sense to you?

[flexcoders] Dynamic Screen
Hi Everybody, It has been some time I am playing with Flex. I came across a problem and I was wondering how we can do it in Flex. Use Case: 1. Server sends some screen XML which is having information about user controls. (Date Selectors, Drop-down lists and Buttons etc.)… 2. Depending on XML we need to render the screen. Just like XSLT. Can we do this in Flex? Similarly, is it possible to include another .swf file like we load different classes at runtime? I want to share one component with multiple components.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex 2b2: Double click troubles
I experienced the same problem regarding ItemDoubleClick event in the column chart. I wanted to forward drill down on one click and on double click reverse drill down.

Hi Ely, We wan't to put a vertical line on X-Axis value for which the Y-axis value exceeds a threshold. E.g. following are the input sets -X-Axis Values : [ 11:00, 12:00, 13:00]Y-Axis Values: [47,67,31] Now there should be a way to define threshold on Y-Axis.

Re: [flexcoders] Large XML data binding to FLEX Chart
Yes, Matt. I agree with you. With events it shouldn't be any problem to simulate the pagination. Infact I wrote a demo like that and it works fine for me.I am started to look seriously to Flex just three days ago. I am very much impressed by the the extensible nature of each component. I was skeptical about extending the charting framework to add new charts and Ely told me that its possible. Moreover the syntax is so similar to Java, I didn't spent more than few mins to understand how to write new functions! I can now say, you kept the name of product which suits to its natue... its really FLEXible.Only matter is, we need to play around and make our hands dirty to understand the exact behaviour.

RE: [flexcoders] Too many mistakes
Guys, as I said earlier we are planning to integrate charting with our application. We are using very scalable J2EE platform for backend logic. Our architecture is as follows - DB -> J2EE(Servlets & Classes) -> XML to Browser -> XSLT for presentation I am unhappy with the presentation tier. We are doing same old HTML presentation for our app. I tried to make it little rich by Ajaxifying it. Hardly it could add much value to it. But ajax raised few more problems like handelling server responses at other complexities. So here I want to put the Flash in presentation tier which will have little business logic and good charting capability to complement my other text data. One more thing I noticed is, when I compile a very small application also like simple label and button, the size of generated file is ~345K, and when browser renders, it leaves about 40M footprint. Is this grows linerly along with complexity in UI? Now I am on verge to make a decision to take in/out Flex. Please shed some light. So far you guys were great! Thanks, SachinJason Hawryluk <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:Mike, I have to second that. Im in exactly the same position. Concentrate on the backend and front end non UI related architecture.

Re: [flexcoders] Too many mistakes
Hi Michael, You are absolutely correct. Beta products are not production ready and they have mistakes. I am thinking to use the Flex charting in my application. I can see that Flex 2 is in beta and Flex 1.5 is prod stable but lack in features. Moreover, if I now invest time in Flex 1.5 there is complete re-design on actionscript and lot of other changes too. Is there any way by which we can start with Flex 2.0 without facing much trouble? I am a Java architect and for the first time I am looking at RIA like Flex or OL. Any comments regarding my problems will be strongly appriciated. Regards, SachinMichael Schmalle <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi,Do you know what beta means? It means there are mistakes everywhere and they are cleaning them up.Besides, if you are going to use beta software, your mind has to be a problem solver from the start. You can't rely on examples, you have to experiment. There IS enough good examples and docs to get things to work.Peace, Mike On 3/29/06, snail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:hello,everyone When I read the help content of Flex Builder 2 beta 2,I find many mistakes,such as use "Link" instead of "LinkButton" which is not exist in Flex 2.
