I am wondering if it is possible to customize Flex Chart to have grids like in this example: http://imglink.ru/show-image.php?id=bfcb5a0c5bbcfc20f3f21ef764ed79e7
Thank you in advance!
the simple answer is YES you can.
you can give a skin to each of the elements in the Graph, I worked on a FOREX trading application earlier this year and I was surprised from the level of customization you can achieve with it.
you will probably have to extend the chart to accomplish it but you certainly can achieve the look you are looking for.
HI You can do a lot of things with charts. I have worked on various elements of it while working with financial firms.
the primer from where you can start with is

Yes, it's possible to include grids, axis customization and many more things to Flex Charts. You will have to invest some time reading the Flex Charting Components document at Adobe livedocs, or download the whole Flex documentation.

For a web application I'm working on, I need some pretty powerful graphing capabilities. I'm looking at using Google Charts for my needs.
I'm wondering if Google Charts is capable of producing a graph to the complexity of the one in the image below:

If not, are there any other graphing APIs I can use to create a chart to that complexity? Preferably in PHP.
EDIT: Doesn't only have to be Google Charts. I'm looking for something that can handle the above. Commercial solutions are fine as long as the cost is reasonable.
you can use jqChart Plugin for jQuery for this. You can easily combine column, scatter and line series with specifying custom markers.
Take a look at the samples.
Have you ever tried Fusion Charts?
It's the best charting library I've seen. I've used them for web projects and iOS projects as well since they have now JS versions of everything.
Pretty complex graphics, wide range of charts, and even real-time widgets.
They're not free but totally worth it to consider. I've done everything related to pilots and demo projects with the trial version.
Check them out at http://www.fusioncharts.com/demos/gallery/
In the past i used Fusion charts, and i like so much. It was a good charts library, but you probably would have to pay in order use without restrictions. Well, google charts its nice library too, but with less graphic classes. But i think that combo graphic fits your interests.
Get more information with the link below:

I ended up using pChart to achieve what I wanted to do.
I made a custom plugin for both Charts and Tables.
Hope its useful to you.
Feel free to use my custom Google Charts plugin which creates both chart and table. https://github.com/cosmoarunn/gapiExt
I have a requirement to come up with a time line chart and a few more controls on a single page[with rich ui].
I have short listed
Flex, JSF[apache trinidad], html5, gwt these technologies.
None of them provide timeline charts on their own. I am looking at other options such as using third party libraries.
The chart should have drill down capabilities as well.
Let me know if there is any specific technology that I should try.
regards
Annotated Time Line is integrated with GWT.
Chronoscope is a GWT-based timeseries visualization tool.
amCharts has a great timeline chart (Stock chart) based on Flex. You could try that.
i'm building my first RIA in flex, and did a little of research to find a radar chart component free, but all i found is not free (licence >500$).
Where can i find it for free ?
I'm student and i'm learning flex, so there is no point of buying component for now.
Thanks
Have a look at BirdEye, it has radar charts in different flavors.
There is another one here : http://lab.kapit.fr/display/radarchart/Radar+Chart
I'm a newbie to Adobe Flex 3.0. I need to show data within the Pie Chart Legend, alongside the colored markers. I have a few vague ideas about how to go about it. (Maybe I would have to write my custom legendMarkerRenderer.) Could anybody give any pointers? There aren't many examples on the net regarding this.
Thanks in advance!
P.R.
To show the data on the Legend you will need to extend LegendItem class. Example you can see in my blog: http://northam.blogspot.com/2009/05/flex-showing-data-in-legend-of-pie.html
Enjoy!
You can always customize the UI controls in flex as per ur requirements.
So you can extend the legend class
have a look # this also:liveDocs
Here's a really useful link for you. The Flex 3 Component explorer... It has examples of how to implement the majority, if not all, of the adobe flex components. If you want something more complex you may need to extend legend and create you own component. By the sounds of things it should give you enough to go on

I need to build a sales graph for a company and I am going to need to really customize the LineChart in Flex. Can anyone point me to a tutorial or even a book that gives exhaustive coverage of the LineChart in Flex?
UPDATE
Thank you guys for your answers but I am looking for an in-depth full coverage of everything you can do with the LineChart. I am trying to build a custom one and I am having trouble customizing it in further then those tutorials explain. I want something that will give me a deep understanding of how they work so I can intelligently program them instead of programming by permutation.
First check out Adobe's LineChart tutorial and Chart formatting tutorial. Since you have not specified the exact details, I'd suggest you look around the blogs a bit. A good start would be here.
Check out flexexamples. This has tonnes of examples for all of the types of charts.
