in Charting, LineSeries, StyleManager

The following example shows how you can change the line colors in a LineChart in Flex by setting the lineStroke style in MXML or ActionScript, as seen in the following snippets:

MXML:

<mx:LineSeries id="closeSeries" yField="@close" form="curve" displayName="Close">
    <mx:lineStroke>
        <mx:Stroke color="haloGreen" weight="2" alpha="0.6" />
    </mx:lineStroke>
</mx:LineSeries>

ActionScript:

<mx:LineSeries id="closeSeries" yField="@close" form="curve" displayName="Close" />
...
closeSeries.setStyle("lineStroke", new Stroke(0xFF0000, 2, 0.4));
