Is there a way to use FusionMaps in Flex Builder 3?

Recommended Posts

I'm interested in developing a mapping application with Flex Builder 3 and would like to know if it's possible to embed and manipulate the current version of your maps. Can I import the map swf into Flex Builder? Will the imported object expose its API the same way it does within Flash? Are there any examples that you can point me to? If it's not currently possible are there any plans to release a version of FusionMaps that will work with Flex? I'm currently using ILOG Elixir maps, but they only have a few maps and I'd much rather use FusionMaps.

Hi,

 

 

 

Yes, we will start working on FusionMaps for Flex in a few week's time.

 

 

 

It might be in your interest to know that we have released FusionCharts for Flex v1 (http://www.fusioncharts.com/flex). It now offers 45 chart types in both 2D & 3D including the newly added Scatter & Bubble chart. In addition to the general charts comprising of single-series, multi-series, stacked and combination charts, it also offers unique charts like scroll charts, true 3D chart and funnel & pyramid charts. Also, the drag & drop support in Flex Builder IDE has been improved and now you can see a chart in action by just dragging it from the toolbar to your project.

 

 

 

You can check it out and download your no-restriction evaluation copy from www.fusioncharts.com/flex.

Hello :),

 

 

 

We are really excited to announce the release of FusionCharts for Flex v1.1 featuring the following:

 

 

 

- 12 new chart types: 7 new gauges including Angular gauge, LED gauge and Linear gauge, Spark chart and Bullet graphs have been added.

 

- All the gauges can fetch data in real-time and come with alert managers and message loggers.

 

- All the charts and gauges can now be natively exported as images and PDFs.

 

- The data for all the charts can be exported as CSV.

 

- Data sets can now have custom text labels instead of numeric values.

 

- The charts can handle a lot more events to help you manipulate them better.

 

- Trendlines can also have custom tool-text.

 

- Custom color palettes can be defined for the data plots.

 

 

 

Learn more about it from www.fusioncharts.com/flex and learn more on whats new from http://www.fusioncharts.com/flex/VersionHistory.asp.

Hello,

 

 

 

I'm afraid, the FusionMaps v3 can not be used with Flex. We are planning to release FusionMaps for Flex shortly.

 

 

 

You can use the Drill-Down capability of FusionMaps V3 to show line charts when entitites on the map are clicked.

Awaiting your reply.
