Compare the 3 charts on the left-hand side and the images on the right-hand side : it is impossible to save the charts with these formattings. (89.22 KB, application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.spreadsheet)

Compare the 3 charts on the left-hand side and the images on the right-hand side : it is impossible to save the charts with these formattings.

Hello.

I have been working on compilling some scientific data and making some charts to present them as stock charts. 

I edited them to format the data series (changing the line widths and colours of the stock charts). When I save and re-open the file, all these hand-made formating is gone. I tried several times, only repeating the problem every time.

I have attached the file. 
By luck, I had exported the charts as images (to import them in LO Writer) before closing the file. I have included the images side by side to the charts in the spreadsheet so you can compare and see what are the changes that are impossible to save.

Hello Mamoth, should be 1 problem per bug report. Seems that you're reporting 2 problems. (filesave with linewidth & color of stock chart)
I suggest that you only focus in 1 problem in this bug report, then open new bug report for the other one.

Could you also please explain simple steps to always reproduce the problem?
Comment 3 Joel Madero 2013-09-24 02:11:14 UTC
Marking as NEEDINFO - we need reproducible steps in order to verify the bug, also details about your distro (Linux presumed since it's Linux(all)) and what version of LibreOffice you're running.

Once you provide this information please mark as UNCONFIRMED and QA will attempt to reproduce.


Thanks for taking the time to help us make LibreOffice better.

Hello.

Thanks for handling this bug.

Regarding the number of bugs : that some features of the charts (colour and line width) are not kept when the file is saved is a single bug, but I just found another one regarding the data series so I'll open another bug,

I filled the info regarding the version of LO (4.0.4.2). The OS is Ubuntu 12.04 up-to-date.

To reproduce the bug : 
 - download the second attachment. It's a .ods file. Open it.
 - There is only one sheet, called GES_sélection. It has 3 charts but also 3 images which are screen captures of the same charts, with some formatting changes. These images are what we are trying to achieve.
 - Ignore the first chart ('Emissions de gaz à effet de serre dans la productionde chaleur'). I'll open another bug for this one.
 - For the 2 other charts, reproduce the formating shown in the images : double-click the chart, and double-click any of the stock lines to open the 'Data series' window. Open the 'Line' tab. Change the width and the colour of the line.
 - Save the file and close it.
 - Open it again : the changes are gone.

I can confirm those behavior on 2nd chard with LO 3.6.7.2 (Ubuntu 12.04 32bit). Changing of line color & width to 0,1cm not properly saved.

Also saw strange things:
- First line (éolien) properly saved
- At first reopening of the file after saving & closing, chart looks right. But double clicking the chart will rechange color & line width to previous state.

I did some tests and can add that any decoration (lines, labels, shapes, arrows, etc)added to charts is lost after saving and retrieving the file.
