Column Chart - How to show different years side by side?

ionarawilson1 — Wed, 20 Mar 2013 14:56:23 GMT

I am using the pie chart example here

http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/flex/samples/index.html#//01nq00000040000000

to create an application with a column chart. I have two years of data, so I would like to show two bars, one for each year. However my column chart just shows data for one year. If the where expression says selects all records, ( expr = "1 = '1'") the charts still point show 2007. If I change the where expression to 2009, then I get 2009 data but not 2007. How can I change the code so I can show the bars for both years? I am including a screenshot of the chart. Thank you for any help!!!

I found a solution: I had to change the columns in my feature service. Before I had two columns for each county, each representing the 2007 and 2009 data. I decided to keep just one column for each county and repeat the columns for the different years. It worked! Then on the code

function onResult(featureSet:FeatureSet, token:Object = null):void     {      for each (var myGraphic:Graphic in featureSet.features)      {                myGraphicsLayer.add(myGraphic);       // creating an arraycollection from the graphic attributes       var object:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection(        [                  { NAME: myGraphic.attributes.NAME, YEAR: "Industry Output Totals", VALUE: myGraphic.attributes.YEAR_DATA, TOTAL07: myGraphic.attributes.DirTotal_1, TOTAL09: myGraphic.attributes.DirTotal_5 },                         ]);       myGraphic.attributes = object;      }     }     function onFault(info:Object, token:Object = null):void     {      Alert.show(info.toString());     }    }

renderer:

 <mx:ColumnChart id="columnchart" showDataTips="true" selectionMode="multiple"   width="150" height="150"      dataProvider="{data}"       includeIn="detailState"     >   <mx:horizontalAxis   >    <mx:CategoryAxis id="categoryaxis" dataProvider="{data}" categoryField="NAME"  />   </mx:horizontalAxis>   <mx:series>    <mx:ColumnSeries interactive="true" labelField="NAME" id="column1"         displayName="2007" xField = "NAME" yField="TOTAL07"          dataProvider="{data}"/>        <mx:ColumnSeries interactive="true" labelField="NAME" id="column2"         displayName="2009" xField = "NAME" yField="TOTAL09"          dataProvider="{data}"/>       </mx:series>   </mx:ColumnChart>
