I'd like to create a map like the Walmart and Target store openings.

I am needing some pointers how to make the color of the marker dynamic based on a field in the xml data, the field can be either a value or the actual hex color needed.</p> <p>Anybody got any ideas?? </p> <p>I had thought it would be as easy to conditionally process the value entered as brightGreen in walmarts.as but then realized that isnt been used and the color is hardcoded into the Markers.as</p> <p>I'm kinda learning as I go so any pointers appreciated, I guess somewhere I need to add a loop to the data...</p> <p>Thanks Guys </p> http://forums.flowingdata.com/topic/walmart-visualisation#post-233 Fri, 09 Jan 2009 12:28:11 +0000 Colin 233@http://forums.flowingdata.com/ <p>I am really interested in this and adapting it for my own use, I can understand the actionscript files well enough that I think with some trial and error I can get it to work. However, I have no idea how to use these in Flash Professional (the program I have to do this). My guess is that I need an .fla file to call in the actionscript files. Does anyone have an example or suggestions on how to start with this?<br /> thanks </p>
