• Working on getting auto colors to work properly in trend widget.
• 10:00 Meeting to talk to GAO folks. I think that went well. There will be a followup meeting.
• Continued to beat on getting autopallete working for TrendWidget. After stepping through the ThresholdColumnRederer and figuring that out, I wound up with the same wrong coloring that I was getting when I ran the fill function from within the TrendWidget. The problem was that the ChartItem index was referring to each *cluster* of columns, not the columns within the cluster. As a hack to get around this, I put an Array in TrendWidget that counts the yFields that are passed to the field function. The *index* of the yFields is then used as the hue angle. Anyway, here’s the code:

protected function setColumnSeriesColor(element:ChartItem, index:Number):IFill {
	var yFieldName:String = "_unset_";
	var o:Object = element.element;

	// check if the yFieldName is in an array. if it is, then get the index. if not, add and get the index.
	if(o.hasOwnProperty("yField")){
		yFieldName = o.yField;
		if(_yfieldNameArray.lastIndexOf(yFieldName) == -1){
			_yfieldNameArray.push(yFieldName);
		}
		index = _yfieldNameArray.lastIndexOf(yFieldName);
	}
	return ColorUtil.setSeriesColor(element, index);
}

• Next is getting the line charts to work with the color scheme.
• Oh yeah, and add dataTip formatting to pie charts in QueryWidgetBase.

• Dentist this morning
• More tracing of where the tooltip functionality is handled in FlexiChart. I’m starting to think it’s the default behavior, so I’m working on getting a data tip function to extract what’s going on and insert the appropriate text and values.
• Wound up adding a dataTipFunction at the <flexichart:FlexiChart/> level that got the displayName from the HitData.element, which in this case is always going to be a series of some kind. The display name allows me to get the correct value from the item data Object, which is then formatted.
• Still need to bring all the colors in line with the values that are now calculated from the palette.
• Added in change logs to VISIBILITY.
