= Simplify creation of charts - new Chart Wizard ( Autoformat Chart Dialog) =
+
 
Description : The chart creation procedure has been simplified to take less steps. The chart is positioned automatically and serves as live preview. A new wizard offers to select the chart type as first user action. The type can be selected on a single page. There is no need to switch between pages or scroll around anymore. The chart type dialog has been replaced thus it now equals the new first wizard page.

= Enhanced Logarithmic scales =
 +
Description : Logarithmic scales have been enhanced. The user is free to choose manual minimum and maximum values. Thus for example audio engineers now can display their log charts from typical 20 to 20000 Hz.
 +
The major interval for logarithmic scales can now also be changed by the user. The given value is interpreted as order of magnitude (log(x1)-log(x2)), thus if you choose 3 for example you will get major tickmarks at 1 and 1 000 and 1 000 000 etc.

Simplified creation of charts with a new Chart Wizard ( former Autoformat Chart Dialog)

Description : The chart creation procedure has been simplified to take less steps. The chart is positioned automatically and serves as live preview. A new wizard offers to select the chart type as first user action. The type can be selected on a single page. There is no need to switch between pages or scroll around anymore. The chart type dialog has been replaced thus it now equals the new first wizard page.

Flexible source ranges

Description : It is possible now to choose separate data ranges for each series. You can even select different x-values for different series.

Show formula and r^2 value of regression curve in status bar and quick help

Description : When a regression curve in a chart is selected, the status bar now shows the formula and the square of correlation coefficient R in the status bar. The same string is also used for quick help, but only in the extended version (see Tools/Options/%PRODUCTNAME/General for switching that on)

Simplify and correct the 3D-Effects dialog for charts

Description : For charts the old 3D effects dialog is replaced by a new dialog concentrating on the features relevant for charts.

Right-angled axes option for 3D charts

Description : With the new right-angled axes option the user can easily ensure that the axes in a 3D chart are exactly vertical or horizontal. This simplified display looks comfortable and allows for more accurate reading. New charts are now created per default with this option.

Simple 3d look: 3D-Chart looking less confusing (alternative mode)

Description : It is now possible to easily switch to a more simple 3D look in charts with no shading and lines on.

Illumination default setting

  • Description : The defaults for illumination were changed to fit the new simplified 3D look with right-angled axes.

Exploded 3D Pie

Description : Segments of 3D pies or donuts now can be pulled out to stress single data points. The new chart types '3D exploded pie' and 'exploded donut' are offered in the new chart type dialog and wizard.

More pretty default colors

Description : The twelve default colors used for creating new charts have changed to a set of new colors. The colors are the winner (proposal #2) of a voting where twelve different proposals have been made, to vote for. The colors have been changed in the Registry schema file Chart.xcs. They were also added to the standard color palette (standard.soc).

Enhanced Logarithmic scales

Description : Logarithmic scales have been enhanced. The user is free to choose manual minimum and maximum values. Thus for example audio engineers now can display their log charts from typical 20 to 20000 Hz. The major interval for logarithmic scales can now also be changed by the user. The given value is interpreted as order of magnitude (log(x1)-log(x2)), thus if you choose 3 for example you will get major tickmarks at 1 and 1 000 and 1 000 000 etc.

Regression curves are now also available for 2D line charts, 2D bar and column charts and 2D area charts

Enhancement of the data editor

  • Description : For Charts that display their own data there is a dialog for editing the data. The Chart Data dialog is capable to modify, add and delete data that is used in data series and for categories. It is also possible to add and remove entire data series. All parts of a data series' data can be changed with this dialog. Charts with own data are typically those in a presentation. Although they can also appear in a spreadsheet, there, they usually use data coming from sheets

Other features




Compatibility Issues

  • 58457 : Fileformat violation when saving Donut Charts
    • Description : Donut charts now are written to xml according to the ODF specification. Wrong files from former versions are converted during loading. As former versions are buggy they will not be able to import the new correct files correctly. So switch to the corrected version completely when you use this chart type.
    • Feature Announcement : http://graphics.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=features&msgNo=175
    • Specification : --
    • Test case specification : --
    • CWS : chart2mst3 integrated in SRC680m212


  • 59288 : Fileformat Violation when saving manual scales for percent charts
    • Description : Percent charts with user defined scales now are written to xml correctly. Wrong files from former versions are converted during loading. As former versions are buggy they will not be able to import the new correct files correctly. So switch to the corrected version completely when you use this kind of charts.
