Chart2 NewWizard.png

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 - Add option, to select x-values for different y-values / columns separately

  • Description : Allow users to associate source-ranges of spreadsheet data to single chart-objects in different roles, like the x-values of a data-series
  • Issue : 3997
in a scatter chart. Especially different data series with different x-values are commonly used in competitor's applications.


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


Simplify and correct the 3D-Effects dialog for charts


Right angle axes option for 3D charts


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


Illumination default setting


Offer exploded 3D Pies (segment Offset for 3D Pies)


More pretty default colors


Others













  • 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.
