Question

With a Flex ColumnChart, is there a way to center the datatip over the column

Answer 1

+1 A:

If you have a dataTipRenderer you can set the property x in the main component (canvas, hbox or vbox) like this: x="this.x - (this.width* .5)"

That just sort of shifts the same issue to the left a bit. It's right more of the time, but doesn't work at the right edge.

i'm not really sure what you want. But the way i'm doing it you can place the dataTip everywhere you want. y property you can set the y position. It is as simple as that.

My bad I see what you mean now. I tested my code on a linechart but on a bar chart it's refusing to work

Your solution works if the chart's container has enough room on the right side for the tip to be displayed. I didn't leave enough padding in the canvas. Pretty simple.
