Ok. I debuged a bit into it and the problem is that the range finder dialog becomes invisble but is still there. I still could not figure out why this dialog becomes invisble and is not deleted or is still visible.
Fail to reproduce, tested using Mac OSX 10.9 with LibreOffice Version: 4.2.5.2 Build ID: 61cb170a04bb1f12e77c884eab9192be736ec5f5
Confirmed its there in 3.3, 3.6, 4.0, 4.1, 4.2.4, 4.2.6, 4.3.0 and master on Windows and confirmed in on 4.3.0 on Linux Mint. In 4.3 and above, you have to create a data set in order to get it to use data ranges. Steps to reproduce in 4.3: 1) open calc 2) create a data range like A1: Name B1: Age A2: Yousuf B2: 34 A3: Joren B3: 25 3) select A1 to C2 4) click the chart button in the standard toolbar 5) click the next>> button in the chart wizard dialog to get to data range 6) click on the 'select data range' button to the right of the data range field 7) 'Data Range: Area' dialog appears 7) goto File > New > Spreadsheet 8) close the newly opened Spreadsheet 9) 'Data Range: Area' dialog is gone You will not be able to close LibO after step 9 as the close and exit file menu items are dimmed, which also makes the 2 close buttons in the top right corner also not function. You wont be able to bring back up the 'Data Range: Area' dialog by right-clicking the chart, selecting 'Data Ranges...', and then clicking the 'select data range' button.
