FusionCharts for Flex > FAQ

Does FusionCharts for Flex use ActionScript 3?

No. FusionCharts for Flex is built using ActionScript 2. However, FusionCharts.swc, a custom component, communicates between FusionCharts' ActionScript 2 engine( AVM-1) and Flex (AVM-2).

Can I update a single data element?

No. You would need to redraw/render the whole chart with full set of updated data.

Why does not the chart automatically resize itself when the container gets resized?

FuisonCharts for Flex, as of now, does not support dynamic scaling or resizing when the container resizes. Our future version would support this feature.

What kind of data source can we provide to the chart?

FusionCharts for Flex can accept data from simple XML file, XML string to Flex data types namely, Array, XMLList and Model. However, FusionCharts internally accepts only XML data.

Can I use streaming data from Adobe Life Cycle ES?

Not directly. You can use your own Flex code to build XML, or other types of data sources that FusionCharts for Flex supports, and pass it to the chart. In our future releases, this feature would be available.
