Flex :: Why Do Charts Axis Values / Labels Not Show Up When Using Runtime Share Libraries
Nov 10, 2009
I have developed a flex application using the data visualization components. I am now trying to optimize the application and one of approaches I am trying is to use Runtime Shared Libraries.I have configured Flex Builder to deploy with Runtime Shared Libraries and have added the .swz file for the framework, datavisualization and rpc share libraries. After deploying, my application loads, however my axis values within each of my charts are missing. The axes themselves are shown, however they do not have their label units displayed. The series themselves are displayed too.I have tried this using the 3.4 SDK and also the 3.2 SDK within Flex Builder. I also tried compiling flex using the mxmlc ANT tasks and got the same results.I made sure that the framework RSL is getting loaded first and I also made sure that the global flash cache has been cleared before I tested.I can see from my access logs that the .swz files are getting loaded the first time I make a request for my application, so I am confident that I properly cleared the flash player global cache.
Does anyone know why my axis values would be missing only when I deploy with RSL??? Switching back to Merged mode, my application works fine and it is only when I deploy with RSLs that I get the issue.I have also tried to compile using only the framework RSL and not the datavisualization or rpc RSLs (keeping them in merged mode) and I get the same results, no axis values.
I'm creating a small size Flex movies which contains two line charts, at the moment the size of the release build swf is 343KB, which is too large for our needs.
I've tried changing the loading of the SWC file to Runtime Shared Libraries, but I found that this removed the text of the charts (the text for the x and y axis). Why would the text be removed when the Framework linkage is set as a Runtime shared library?
and i want to show these values on the Yaxis and months on Xaxis....
I have two Qns,
1) how can I pass this array to Bar chart or column chart.
2) how do I need to show months on Xaxis. beacuse I'm asking this regarding, I have kept a filters that even if we want to see some months or a particular months or perticalar span of months... there on Xaxis it need to change the months dynamically depending on the filters..... (for ex, on Xaxis the values should be (Jan, Apr, Jun,Oct) if i select the 3 months period filter....)
I have written a logic to collect the values of those particular months into an array, but not understading how to pass this array to Bar chart,, beacuse there I don't know what Xfield and Yfield to be given....
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 line chart that sometimes contains a number of data points. I have solved how to prevent the horizontal axis from displaying too many labels using custom label functions and data functions. My problem is forcing the AxisRenderer not to scale down my labels.
I'm using the labelRotation property so the canDropLabels and canStagger properties are not an option.
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.
I'm having a problem with labels disappearing on Flex's datavisualization.swc charts that are built on our build server via ANT and the Flex 3.3 SDK. I've made sure that our license is applied properly on the build server (hence no water marks), and I've made sure the exact same datavisualization.swc was copied from my dev machine into the Flex3.3SDK/frameworks/libs directory.
Could it be a font problem? (Though we're really only using default fonts.) Here's the problem, missing axis labels on the build server Here's how it's supposed to look with labels (taken on my local development machine)
How to share TextArea Component in multiple swfsaylib.swf (has TextArea Componenet)main.swf (Import TextArea Componenet from lib.swf)section.swf (Import TextArea Componenet from lib.swf)
I would for the labels on the vertical axis to be clickable. So when a user clicks a label a click event fires and I can do something with it. I am not interested in clicking the bar itself (I know how to achieve that)
I tried adding an event listener to the CategoryAxis of type Mouse.Click but nothing gets fired.
I am using a Column Chart to display certain data. The data is provided by an array collection. The array contains 3 elements for the horizontal axis, hence 3 labels are shown on the horizontal axis. I want to show 2 additional labels(i.e. total 5 labels) dynamically on the chart. I there a way to add labels to the horizontal axis.[code]...
So I have a Flex bar chart that resizes dynamically, and if I have only a few items, the height shrinks and the horizontal axis and label shrink along with it. If the height of the chart is small enough, the label shrink down to practically nothing. How can I enforce a minimum height for the axis itself? Or even a minimum font size for the labels? I've tried setting the font size on the axis renderer and the axis label renderer and Flex still wants to resize the labels how it wants.
I have a line chart that is updated every so and so seconds, similar to the one you see in Windows' Task Manager. The chart goes right-to-left, with the most recent data on the right, and going leftwards. How would I invert the values of the X axis so that the lowest value is on the right and the highest on the left? It's a LinearAxis.I tried making it a CategoryAxis and putting the numbers in manually, but that doesn't work the way it should (the labels are not aligned with the ticks).
why the data points on the LineChart don't line up with the corresponding tick mark / horizontal axis label? See adobe's example (at the bottom of the page):[URL]See how the data for 7/28/05 is to the right of the 7/28/05 tick mark / label?
how do i pass upperLimit="", dial value="" and maxValue="" values in colorRange dynamically from the flex side. i need these 3 values to plot on the angle gauge fusion chart
I want a chart that has several separate series running in rows across. They are largely separate charts and should not overlap, but all share the same horizontal datetimeaxis. They don't share the same y-axis, however and that's where I'm getting stuck.I have tried having a linechart series and then a plotchart series, but it will only allow a single <mx:series> per chart without having them inside the same series which as far as I can tell will place the charts on top of each other in the z-axis. I can stack them and have them completely separate charts, but it was proving to be somewhat irritating having them align correctly.
Is there any reasonable way of combining multiple charts into one like this? Basically having rows in a table where each row is a different chart but the columns are consistent. or am I going to be best served just by stacking separate ones? an illustration of what i'm going for is here: http:[url]........
In my flex datagird i have a checkbox and a datgrid with seven columns. im populating values in first five column(remaining two column no values) of datgrid by an Arraycollection. now,By clicking the checkbox i want to show all seven column values and if i uncheck five columns has to show... how its possible?? heres my code
I looked at different flash chart software (free and commercial) and could find only one that supports the feature I want: map my dataset on the predefined X axis. Let me give an example.
Let's say my X axis is time. The time is represented in hours. So let's assume my X axis has last 24 hours. Now the data I have in the database contains data coming every 50 minutes. My goal is to have a chart that will show this data. The point on the graph will not correspond to X axis values one to one.
The simple solution (and all charts support this) is to set X axis resolution to 1 minute and only show "ticks" on A axis every hour. Assuming that chart supports "null" values (and most of them are) - it works fine as an idea.
The problem is that in this case (for all of the charts I know) I have to provide XML/json/CSV as a source of data that will contain 24 hours * 60 minutes points of data, with only ~29 (24 hours, every 50min) containing meaningful data. This puts a stress on 1) database, 2) more traffic 3) makes chart less responsive.Are there any flash graphs that will accept a dataset of ~29 values and map into 24 points on X axis.
I'm trying to show some data that's integers but the BarChart is using fractional values on the axis which makes no sense in this scenario. Is there any way to force the chart to only use integer values on the axis? I don't know the range so it could be anything from 1 to 10000000, so I can't just explicitly set up everything.
I am trying to use AlivePDF to save a chart into a .pdf file. However, when I try to save my chart, it ends up clipping half of the chart in the pdf so it isn't even fully visible. It seems that the screencapture that AlivePDF took to generate my pdf was too small.I am trying to get a chart from a sample to work with sample code for using alivepdf that I picked off the web.[code]
I am taking data from SAP and displaying in column chart in a dashboard. I am using an ArrayCollection as data provider. This has 27 columns(fields). So i am using 27 columns charts. However, I also have to display the summary of these in two charts.i.e. sum of 14 columns in one chart and 13 columns into other.
How can I do the following in Flex 4.5 or later: Compile an swc library file containing packages of simple functions Compile an swf application referencing the swc file as RSL Publish the swf application Send the source code of the swc file to another developer Allow the developer to modify the code of some functions while keeping their interfaces Allow the developer to compile the source code into a new swc file using only compc Allow the developer to replace my original swc file with his new swc file, then execute my swf application having the new swc file in the same directory.
Suppose that I have two applications running on the same page. I have the Libraries compiled into the SWF file: [code]Is RSL intended to just improve the download time (via caching) or does it also lower the memory foot print of an applicaiton?
I want to have my code/class library stored in an RSL (as a SWF online) which is then loaded during runtime by the host SWF. I learned about this technique from Colin Moock in his book Essential Actionscript 3.0 (Chapter 31: Distributing a Class Library).Now, I know that if you share graphics between SWFs via RSLs, you can update the graphic in the RSL and have all SWFs that access that RSL use that updated graphic.
But I want to store code in an online RSL, that is shared by multiple SWFs, and then when the code needs to be updated, I simply recompile the SWF (do I even need to worry about the SWC anymore?) containing the class library and upload and overwrite the existing RSL on the web. Voila! The code is now updated in all SWFs that share that RSL Class Library.The problem is, I can't get it to work right. CS3 and CS4 aren't updating and CS5 just crashes on export!
The code I'm testing with simply outputs some chosen text to screen.I want to change the string that's output by changing the code. Nothing fancy now, but it'll obviously be used for far more indepth stuff when (if?) I get this going properly.

need to show the vaules on mouseover as well as at the bottom of each node in the charts. In case of pie chart, the chart data should be visible on each of the pie. On mouse over tool tip display for values should be optional.
