FusionCharts for Flex > Your First Chart

Let's see how easy it is to create chart in Flex using FusionCharts for Flex. We would be using Flex Builder for this example.

You would just need to complete the basic setup, as discussed in the installation section and create a new project.

Next, we switch over to the Design View. We would find a Custom component named FusionCharts in Component Window. We simply drag the FusionCharts custom component and drop it onto the stage. Thats it!

The Flex IDE would look somehow like the screenshot as shown below:

It's time to lose your patience and run the project and run the project. Holla! Its a chart in page! Yes, it is this easy!

But, since we would like to create a chart with our own data, let's move further to the subsequent pages. The implementation in those pages would also be this simple. Just that we would use some real life data.
