2. Re: Pie Chart Data Labels: custom renderer?
rootsounds Jun 24, 2010 1:30 PM (in response to rtalton)Have you dug through the PieChart source? Though now open, it's still not designed to be terribly customizable with ease. By digging through the Data Visualization source, I have found developed workarounds for such issues. However, sometimes pieces are painfully private.

3. Re: Pie Chart Data Labels: custom renderer?
rtalton Jun 25, 2010 7:28 AM (in response to rootsounds)I did go through the Pie Chart source code. Not able to see how to substitute my own lable for the data labels, though.
I'm still hopeful someone who is an expert on the chart classes will know of a way to implement my own itemRenderer for the data labels as simply as I can for the column and bar charts' axis labels.

rootsounds Jun 25, 2010 10:32 AM (in response to rtalton)A workaround may be to overlay your own labels. Yeah it's kind of a pain, but I'm thinking that just a little of positioning math. The charts do provide you with a lot of positioning information though.

rtalton Jun 25, 2010 10:44 AM (in response to rootsounds)Thanks, rootsounds. Since this issue is related to embedded fonts & RSLs, my work-around is to simply specify a system font from the user's system. I may be nitpicking, but I embed the font so I can control the look, and then I have to "let go" of the Pie Chart control. Bummer. I use Verdana & Georgia everywhere else but the pie charts. I wonder if this is fixed in Flex 4???
