Flex :: DateTimeAxis Creates Duplicate Months On Axis
Nov 17, 2009
I am working with a Flex DateTimeAxis. I have a scenario where the DateTimeAxis sometimes creates duplicate months on the Axis. The month label unit is generated based on a min/max value that is supplied to the DateTimeAxis, it is NOT generated by the series data as far as I can tell. In other words, the duplication does not exist within the data supplied to the chart, but is part of automatic label generation process that DateTimeAxis will execute when supplying a min/max value for the axis.[code]...
I have a problem zooming in on a line chart with a dateTimeAxis as horizontal axis. I want to zoom in and out, by setting the minimum and the maximum attribute of the dateTimeAxis with a slider. The date labels change as should, but the lines disappear as I set the minimum or the maximum. Here's a part of the code I have:
it was possible to control the number of tick marks the Flex DateTimeAxis displays along its axis? Currently, the datetimeaxis controls how many tick marks to display on its axis whenever I change the date range on my chart. Ideally, I would just like there to be only and always 7 tick marks no matter how many datapoints are on the chart. I went into the DateTimeAxis class and noticed that there is a public function called transformCache(), which actually handles rendering the tick marks on the axis but I am not sure what class calls this method.
i am using get and setters in my as3 code to edit values of an other class (because those variables are shared) i dont like to put stage.sharedVar.isScrabble in my code every time to change a variable so i used get/set functions [code]as you van see it has a lot of duplicate code every time the "return stage.sharedVar." and the "stage.sharedVar."+ the value + " = val" is constantly comming back.i was wondering is there a other way of creating these get/sets?[code]
I am sorting xmllist profilexml. In the list dates and months are sorted using SortField. It is sorting up to September month. After that Oct, Nov, and Dec are coming and displaying on the top in the datagrid.
finalList = new XMLListCollection(profileXml); var sortL:Sort = new Sort(); sortL.fields = [new SortField("startDate", true)];
[Code]....
<startDate>2/15/2011</startDate> as per my understanding it is sorting until 0-9 numeric fields only. Is there anything I need to add in this code for numeric sorting?
I'm making a chart where the x-axis needs to have dates and y-axis names. The lenght of the bar is longer when the date is later. But I want to stack multiple bars on eachother. for example This is the code I have so far
I want to show a full 24 hours along the datetimeaxis wherever the values fed into it happen to fall. I thought that setting the minimum and maximum of a datetime axis on the chart would have that effect.
so I have private function loadDayComplete():void{ //called when data is reloaded. also includes reassigning the dataprovider of the chart.
[Code]...
When I load up the function though it doesn't plot any points when the min and max are set. If I take out the minimum and maximum they show up fine! I double checked in debug mode that the minChartDate and maxChartDate are what they should be.. but maybe I'm misunderstanding how minimum and maximum are supposed to function... I also tried widening the min/max to include several days and still no luck. I also tried assigning the min/max when the chart data changes like so:
I've been trying for a while to set the number of labels being shown with a datetimeaxis being used for the y-axis. Unfortunately, I'm not able to get the desired behaviour.I'd like to have the y-axis separated into days (i.e. a tick on the axis for each day). However, it is spacing them out one week at a time. I have tried setting labelUnits and minorTickUnits to "days" but no joy.
I have a LineChart with a DateTimeAxis as horizontalAxis and a maximum set. If a point is beyond the maximum date, the whole segment will not appear. Yet, is there a way to make it appear until it reachs the border of the chart?The code here :
<?xml version="1.0"?> <!-- Simple example to demonstrate the DateTimeAxis class. --> <s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
I have a chart that uses a DateTimeAxis for the x-axis and a renderer defined for it. I also have a function defined for the label on the axis but I am not able to get the labels to show.
Trying to print out a static time to test working.
private function timeAxisLabelFunction(obj1:Object, obj2:Object, axis:IAxis):String { return "9:30AM"; }
[Code]....
Apparently, the font family I was using doesnt support a font style that is used in the renderer. Not sure what style attribute it is yet.
I have a chart with X-axis showing timeline and Y-axis showing value for an object. The time line values are in 'milliseconds'. I have give the user a way to select timeline, user can select a day/week/month/months. So, in my Chart I want to show all the data points for the selected range but want to limit the date labels displayed on the X-axis. For Ex: if user selects a week, I want to display Mon to Sun on the X-axis. And if user selects a day, want to display a label for every 3 hrs like that...
I guess it is possible if only, I look at the selected time range at run-time and based on the starting (t1) and end (t2) time, I make a decision. Is there any API available in Flex's DateTimeAxis to achieve this ? Or any other ideas on how to get this working ?
Is there a way in flex 3 chart component to display both the date and time using horizontal DateTimeAxis?
Currently the DateTimeAxis element has an attribute dataunits which allows to set the value to any of "milliseconds|seconds|minutes|hours|days|weeks|months|years" but I want to display the label as "2009/09/15 06:00:00" which includes the day and the time too.
I'm working with an AreaSeries + DateTimeAxis in Flex 4. The dates for the time axis originate from a server in another time zone. I'd like to see the graph (in my local time zone) displayed using the server's time zone.I know that I can set the DateTimeAxis.displayLocalTime property to true or false, to have dates displayed in the local or UTC time zone. But the time zone I want is neither of those.Is there a simple way to make DateTimeAxis work with another time zone? Or even a complicated way?
I'm working with an Adobe Flex project and I have data I'm plotting against a DateTimeAxis (X-axis) but because there are a lot of points, I have to do some manipulation and remove some objects in the array (I do this by copying data to another array, removing items, then copying the new array into the original array). However, sometimes after I do this, the date labels disappear off of the x-axis! Why does this happen? I look through my array and I cannot find a reason its occurring (no objects with nothing in them, everything appears in chronological order).
I'm using a CartesianChart with a DateTimeAxis to display weekly data in a Flex application.When I set dataUnits="weeks" and labelUnits="weeks" on the DateTimeAxis, it automatically places each major tick on a Sunday. However, I would like to provide users with the option of beginning the week on a Sunday or a Monday. How can I ask the DateTimeAxis to instead place the major ticks on a Monday (or some other day of week)?For example, if the user is looking at total sum of something over the week, and requests that weeks start on a Sunday, the Series data would look like:
I have a LineChar, with one LineSeries, on which i am drawing values ( Y axis ), on specific time ( X axis ).The problem is that i don't wanna the points which is distanced on a specific distance in time ( let say 6 hours ) to be connected.Is there a way to make LineSeries with DateTimeAxis not connecting points distanted in specific time ?
I am trying to construct coordinates with distance in meters on the x-axis and time in seconds on the y-axis, without using the timeline. How can I draw the divisions on the x-axis and y-axis ? Or I better draw the whole thing.
var my_shape:Shape = new Shape();addChild(my_shape); my_shape.graphics.lineStyle(3, 0xFF0000, 1);my_shape.graphics.moveTo(50,50);my_shape.graphics.lineTo(50, 300);my_shape.graphics.lineTo(500, 300);
I've put together this simple code for an SWF with three roll over images (called: Training, Resources and Contact).When I roll over Training I would like the symbol Training_txt to tween its alpha to 1 (from 0) and tween its y axis to 220 (from 83).When I roll out of Training I would like to run the two tweens in reverse.
This works fine for each of the three roll over images, so long as each tween is allowed to fully execute before a new tween is started. The problem arises if i quickly move the mouse curser between the three roll over images before the previous tweens have finished executing.In this instance, the tweened objects start to behave erratically. They usually return to their original position as per the roll_out tween but then start jumping between y axis 200 and y axis 83 (without tweening - they just appear).
I need to load swf according to the months. I have the script with the date, hour and days, but I need to load a swf in January, other in February.[code]...
I have a calendar written in Flash (ActionScript). The calendar displays events on it. I am seeing an issue today (March 31) with any months that have less than 31 days in them. Here's the code:
myDateate = new Date(); myDate.setUTCFullYear(2011); myDate.setUTCMonth(3); //April myDate.setUTCDate(21); Alert.show(myDate.toDateString()); <-- Shows May 21, 2011
This is also broken for ANY month that has less than 31 days. So if I was to substitute 1 (feb), 5 (june), 8 (sept), or 10 (nov), it will show me the following month rather than the month I specify. If I set my system clock to April 1, the alert shows the correct date I specified which is April 21, 2011. Has anybody else experienced this kind of behavior? This is also broken if i use the non-UTC methods.
I am trying to place an image besides the label in y-axis. So I have created a custom label renderer(A HBox containing and ). The source for the image has to be set based on a property present in the data provider. The problem is, I am not able to access the BarSeriesItem in the fnSetSource() method.
Is it possible to restrict flex bar chart y-axis count?I have a very big name coming in my y-axis and i want to reduce or restrict it to 5 characters and on rollover i want to display it in full.
I have to validate that 1) the end Date is not less than the start Date and 2) the difference between the two UTC Dates is not more than 12 months. To do this, I need a monthDifference function:
public static function monthDifference(start:Date, end:Date):int;
Since partial months can be confusing, this is how month differences are supposed to work:
The month difference between January 1, 2010 and January 31, 2010 is zero (0).
The month difference between January 31, 2010 and February 1, 2010 is one (1).
The month difference between January 1, 2010 and February 28, 2010 is one (1).
The month difference between January 1, 2010 and March 1, 2010 is two (2).
How can I calculate month difference in ActionScript 3.0?
I'm using greensock to create the tweens, but I need to be able to have the months continue their animation if I ROLL_OUT of 2008 Additionally, I need to set the timeline.reverse(); on all the months, but that doesn't seem to be working, and I think it's because I have it set to pause. is anyone familiar with tweening libraries? Can this be fixed? I tried doing timeline.duration but that just sends the animation to the end and I want it to animate to the end-not just go there.
I have a calendar-class and I want to see if there is a post in my database for any of the dates. I was thinking a nested loop, the first one loops through the dates of the month and the nested one compares variables with the date.
Ex. loadVariablesNum("[URL]", 0) for (q = 1; q <= Days; q++){ //load 'day-symbol' for(x = 1; x == 10; x++){ if(q == someArray[x]){ //someArray[] from loadVariablesNum //mark day... }}
How long would it take for a raw beginner to learn Action Script 3 coding so as to have a basic understanding and an ability to code Flash.Also to be able to take existing code and adapt it to suit ones own flash project ?Are there any training videos on such or good books to read ?What is the best way of learning AS3 ?Is it in fact best to forget AS3 and get tuition in programming or some other discipline then take a look at AS3 and what timescale would be suitable to achieve this so as to meet the goal stated above
