The CategoryAxis class lets charts represent data grouped by a set of discrete values along an axis. You typically use the CategoryAxis class to define a set of labels that appear along an axis of a chart. For example, charts that render data according to City, Year, Business unit, and so on.

You are not required to explicitly set the dataProvider property on a CategoryAxis. A CategoryAxis used in a chart inherits its dataProvider property from the containing chart.

While you can use the same data provider to provide data to the chart and categories to the CategoryAxis, a CategoryAxis can optimize rendering if its data provider is relatively static. If possible, ensure that the categories are relatively static and that changing data is stored in separate data providers.

The dataProvider property can accept either an array of strings or an array of records (Objects) with a property that specifies the category name. If you specify a categoryField property, the CategoryAxis assumes that the data provider is an array of Objects. If the value of the categoryField property is null, the CategoryAxis assumes that the data provider is an array of Strings.

baseline

propiedad

baseline:Number [solo lectura]

Versión del lenguaje:

ActionScript 3.0

Versión de producto:

Flex 3

Versiones de motor de ejecución:

Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

The baseline position for the axis. Some series, such as ColumnSeries or AreaSeries, use this value to define the base of a filled region when no minimum value is specified.

Implementación
public function get baseline():Number

categoryField

propiedad

categoryField:String

Versión del lenguaje:

ActionScript 3.0

Versión de producto:

Flex 3

Versiones de motor de ejecución:

Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Specifies the field of the data provider containing the text for the labels. If this property is null, CategoryAxis assumes that the dataProvider contains an array of Strings.

El valor predeterminado es null.

Implementación
public function get categoryField():String
public function set categoryField(value:String):void

dataFunction

propiedad

dataFunction:Function

Versión del lenguaje:

ActionScript 3.0

Versión de producto:

Flex 3

Versiones de motor de ejecución:

Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Specifies a method that returns the value that should be used as categoryValue for current item.If this property is set, the return value of the custom data function takes precedence over categoryField

The custom dataFunction has the following signature:

     function_name (axis:CategoryAxis, item:Object):Object { ... }

axis is the current axis that uses this dataFunction item is the item in the dataProvider that is considered. This function returns an object.

An example usage of a customized dataFunction is to return a value from a dataProvider that has items with nested fields

Implementación
public function get dataFunction():Function
public function set dataFunction(value:Function):void

Ejemplo
Cómo utilizar este ejemplo

     public function myFunction(axis:CategoryAxis,item:Object):Object {
          return(item.Country.State);
     }

dataProvider

propiedad

dataProvider:Object

Versión del lenguaje:

ActionScript 3.0

Versión de producto:

Flex 3

Versiones de motor de ejecución:

Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Specifies the data source containing the label names. The dataProvider can be an Array of Strings, an Array of Objects, or any object that implements the IList or ICollectionView interface. If the dataProvider is an Array of Strings, ensure that the categoryField property is set to null. If the dataProvider is an Array of Objects, set the categoryField property to the name of the field that contains the label text.

Implementación
public function get dataProvider():Object
public function set dataProvider(value:Object):void

labelFunction

propiedad

labelFunction:Function

Versión del lenguaje:

ActionScript 3.0

Versión de producto:

Flex 3

Versiones de motor de ejecución:

Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Specifies a function that defines the labels that are generated for each item in the CategoryAxis's dataProvider. If no labelFunction is provided, the axis labels default to the value of the category itself.

The labelFunction method for a CategoryAxis has the following signature:

      function function_name(categoryValue:Object, previousCategoryValue:Object, axis:CategoryAxis, categoryItem:Object):String { ... }

Where:

categoryValue is the value of the category to be represented.
previousCategoryValue is the value of the previous category on the axis.
axis is the CategoryAxis being rendered.
categoryItem is the item from the dataProvider that is being represented.

Flex displays the returned String as the axis label.

If the categoryField property is not set, the value will be the same as the categoryValue property.

Implementación
public function get labelFunction():Function
public function set labelFunction(value:Function):void

padding

propiedad

padding:Number

Versión del lenguaje:

ActionScript 3.0

Versión de producto:

Flex 3

Versiones de motor de ejecución:

Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Specifies the padding added to either side of the axis when rendering data on the screen. Set to 0 to map the first category to the very beginning of the axis and the last category to the end. Set to 0.5 to leave padding of half the width of a category on the axis between the beginning of the axis and the first category and between the last category and the end of the axis.

This is useful for chart types that render beyond the bounds of the category, such as columns and bars. However, when used as the horizontalAxis in a LineChart or AreaChart, it is reset to 0.

El valor predeterminado es 0.5.

Implementación
public function get padding():Number
public function set padding(value:Number):void

propiedad

ticksBetweenLabels:Boolean

Versión del lenguaje:

ActionScript 3.0

Versión de producto:

Versiones de motor de ejecución:

Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Filters a set of values of arbitrary type to a set of numbers that can be mapped.

Parámetros

	`cache:Array` — An Array of objects where converted values are read from and stored.

	`field:String` — The field of the objects in the cache Array containing the pre-filtered values.

	`filteredField:String` — The field of the objects in the cache Array where filtered values should be stored.

formatForScreen

método

public function formatForScreen(value:Object):String

Versión del lenguaje:

Formats values for display in DataTips. Returns a user-readable string.

Parámetros

value:Object — The value to convert to a String.

Valor devuelto

String — The text of the DataTip.

getLabelEstimate

()

método

public function getLabelEstimate():AxisLabelSet

Versión del lenguaje:

ActionScript 3.0

Versión de producto:

Flex 3

Versiones de motor de ejecución:

Flash Player 9, AIR 1.1

Determines the range to estimate what the axis labels should be. The axis almost immediately calls the getLabels() method to get the real values. The axis uses the estimated values to adjust chart margins, so any difference between the estimated labels and actual labels (returned from the getLabels() method) results in scaling the labels to fit.

An axis need only return the minimum and maximum labels when returning an estimate. If the label set is fairly static, without depending on the size of the axis being rendered on screen, an axis can return the entire label set from this function, and mark the estimate as accurate.

Valor devuelto

AxisLabelSet — An Array of AxisLabel objects.

getLabels

public function getLabels(minimumAxisLength:Number):AxisLabelSet

Versión del lenguaje:

ActionScript 3.0

Gets the labels text that is rendered. When Flex calls this method, the axis has already determined the minimum length of the label.
