    Very neat feature !
    I was wondering since it is beta for Flex3 do you have for example a library for Flex2 ( which is not beta) or it is the first time you offer a library for Flex?
    Also do you know when are you going to be out of beta ?

    Alexander: http://www.anychart.com/blog/2008/05/08/flex-3-chart-examples-and-tutorials-with-anychart-for-adobe-flex-3-charting-component/

    It is already tested, we have added tutorials and we provide it to anyone who purchases AnyChart.

  8. Kenneth Ray Says:

    Using FlexBuilder, I ran through the tutorial “Using Anychart in Flex applications”. In this way I was able to quickly learn a lot….

    I am especially interested in building dashboards. Do you have a Flex dashboard example that captures data from a relational database?

    I assume that a scripting language is needed to query the database and capture the results in a data structure accessible to the Flex compiler, but I’m not clear on how all the pieces would fit together.

    thanks

  9. Steve Zastrow Says:

    Howdy,

    I’m interested in embedding an AnyGantt component within Flex. I’ve found a trial for an AnyChart SWC, but not for an AnyGantt SWC. Is there such a thing available?

    Thanks much,

    Steve

  10. Matt Reider Says:

    Do these swc components have versions that do not include the watermark? I would love to use some of this stuff, and I’ll pay for it!

  11. Alex Batsuev Says:

    Matt,

    yes - sure. You’ll get full version without watermarks after purchasing.

    Thanks!
