FusionCharts and Flash > Handling Loading/Rendering Events

When you're loading a FusionCharts chart inside your Flash movie, you can be notified when the chart has finished rendering. Here, we'll see a simple example, wherein we modify our previous Basic example to track the rendering event. The modified file is saved as RenderEvent.fla.
Adding event listeners

All the charts in FusionCharts suite expose an event rendered once they've finished rendering. You can create your listener objects to listen to this event, using the following code: 

//Create a listener object to listen to the rendered event of the chart

         trace("The chart has finished rendering");
      }
      //Register the object with the chart
    myFirstChart.addEventListener("rendered", objL);

Here, we've created a listener object and associated it with the chart's instance (myFirstChart) . For the sake of demonstration, we just trace out a message whenever the chart has rendered. When you run this code, you'll see the following results:
