Re: hitData function. How to Determine the LineSeries I have hit

[Philip Medlam]

Thank you very much.
With a Slight modification it gives me the LineSeries name:-)
var elementName:String = String(hitData.element);
var c:int = elementName.lastIndexOf(".");
var lineSeriesName:String = elementName.substring(c + 1);

Please consider this question answered, with many thanks!
