CDDrawAreaMBS.initDynamicLayer
Function:
Initializes a dynamic layer for drawing text and shapes.
Notes:
This method clears the existing dynamic layer, or creates a new one if there is no existing dynamic layer. This method returned a DrawArea object that can be used to draw on the dynamic layer. The dynamic layer can later be removed using BaseChart.removeDynamicLayer.
The design of the dynamic layer is for drawing small, rapidly updatable contents for desktop applications. For example, the dynamic layer can be used to implement a cross-hair mouse cursor, with text showing the location of the mouse cursor. To do this, in the mouse move event handler, BaseChart.initDynamicLayer can be used to create or clear the dynamic layer. The returned DrawArea object can then be used to draw the cross hair cursor (as two straight lines) and the text. When the mouse cursor leaves the chart, BaseChart.removeDynamicLayer can be used in the mouse out event handler to remove the cross-hair cursor and the text.
Note that as long as the dynamic layer is not removed with BaseChart.removeDynamicLayer, only the returned DrawArea object should be used to draw things on the dynamic layer. No other objects should be used to draw on the chart.
Returns a DrawArea object that can be used to add text and shapes to the dynamic layer.

CDDrawAreaMBS.linearGradientColor(startX as Integer, startY as Integer, endX as Integer, endY as Integer, colors() as Integer, periodic as boolean=false) as Integer
Function:
Creates a multi-point linear gradient color.
Notes:
In this method, the color points are defined as an array of positions and colors along a reference line segment, in the following format:
position0, color0, position1, color1, .... positionN, colorN
The positions are specified as a number from 0 - 256 (0 - 100 in hex), in which 0 represents the starting point of the reference line segment, and 256 (100 in hex) represents the ending point of the reference line segment.
For example, the array (in hex):
000000, FF0000, 000080, FFFF00, 000100, 00FF00
means the starting point (000000) is red (FF0000), the mid-point (000080 in hex) is yellow (FFFF00), and the ending point (000100 in hex) is green (00FF00).
One common usage of multi-point gradient colors is to define colors that have metallic look and feel. ChartDirector comes from several predefined gradient color arrays as follows.
