Flex 2.0.1 broke LineSeries.form in AS?

Question

Hi guys, I think this is a bug, but maybe I'm doing something
wrong...
When programatically adding a new LineSeries to a chart via
AS, the compiler fails to find the LineSeries object's "form"
property. This worked fine in Flex 2.0.0.
Here's a really simple example:
quote:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
layout="absolute">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.charts.series.LineSeries;
private function test():void {
var series:LineSeries = new LineSeries;
series.form = "curve";
]]>
</mx:Script>
</mx:Application>
The resulting compiler error is:
quote:
1119: Access of possibly undefined property form through a
reference with static type mx.charts.series:LineSeries.
Note, using the form '<mx:LineSeries form="curve"/>'
works fine.
Anyone else having this problem?

Well actually it seems to be just the syles that are a
problem. Most of the properties seem to work, but none of the
styles do, except "radius".
So, the following styles produce the same compiler error:
bottom, errorColor, fill, focusBlendMode, focusSkin,
focusThickness, form, horizontalCenter, itemRenderer, left,
legendMarkerRenderer, lineSegmentRenderer, lineStroke, right,
stroke, themeColor, top, and verticalCenter.
I'm not sure if all of those worked under Flex 2.0.0, but
"form" definately did. Are we not allowed to set styles that way
under Flex 2.0.1? I didn't see anything to that effect in the
changelog.
Also, curiously, the style "radius" does work... but it's the
only one.
