Description pierre-yves samyn 2014-06-07 15:38:35 UTC

Hi

Unable to select the data range if not initially selected when you create a chart.

Steps to reproduce:

1. File> New> Spreadsheet
2. Insert> Object> Chart

Expected Result: opening wizard with 4 enabled steps
Actual result: only steps 1 and 4 are available.

If you finish creating it is not possible to edit the source range.

Also reproduced (fr-qa) on:
- Version: 4.3.0.0.beta1
Build ID: 2e39c7e59c8fc8b16a54c3d981dceef27fb0c07f
- Windows 7/64 & Version: 4.3.0.0.beta2
Build ID: a06aa316117a6ff0f05c697c82831c227812d810 

So I set status to New

This bug is different, but may be related to bug 78860 (already fixed, thank you Kohei).

Workaround: select at least one cell before create the chart

This is more annoying than it seems because:
- this is the recommended method for creating a "full page" chart
(to compensate for the lack of graphics Excel sheets).
-data range is unaccessible.

Last known functioned Version: 4.2.5.1
Build ID: 881bb88abfe2992c6cede97c23e64a9885de87de

I reproduce the described behavior with LO 4.3.0.0.beta2+ (Build ID: a442091e3a66b33ecbd461de3fe9afd7add5b107) under Ubuntu 14.04 x86-64. This build has the fix for bug 78860.

Best regards. JBF

This has nothing to do with when the data is selected. The problem is that only a single cell is selected at that point which skips the part that sets an calc data provider.
