Of course, I tried it with this site and I saw a link from digg coming in. Following it I found that Brajeshwar had actually seeded my DiggMapper application. And in keeping with Murphy’s law, that was the night I moved some files around and actually blew the location of the swf the application was loading in. Hence most of the comments are “this sucks, it doesnt work at all !”. Either way, I did get a few diggs and hey, I formally have a dugg application .

They are actually randomly picked from an array of colors. The goal of the code in this post was to demonstrate the algorithm that automatically computes areas based on weights. Using category and subcategory information to determine color values would definitely move DiggMapper closer to an application status than the experiment it is right now :) Hi Uma,

I am a Information Design Student from India. I was researching for some material regarding TreeMaps and I came across your blog. The DiggMapper application interested me. I do have a few questions related to the colours used.. I found that there was a repitition in the colours used in one particular category results. Is this to imply sub categorization in one category.. And if so.. what was the basis of the choice of colours used.. Please throw some light to this topic.. Regards Uma Hi..

Dana: yeah i know...havent looked at the mx Tootip class to find out if I can cleanly position the tips the way flex components do by default.
