Powerpoint excerpt containing the charts which do not render correctly.

Problem description: 
Chart created as an Excel object embedded in a PowerPoint presentation.  Bars render in greyscale instead of color, and hence cannot be distinguished.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Powerpoint Presentation created on PowerPoint 2008 (Mac) uses embedded Excel Chart to render bar graph.
2. Document saved as PPTX
3. Document opened in LibreOffice

Current behavior:
Chart appears with bars in black and white.

Expected behavior:
Chart appears with bars in color.  (I attach a PDF of how it looks in PowerPowerpoint in a follow, it seems like I can only attach a single file in Bugzilla.

Comment 2 A (Andy) 2012-12-26 23:13:54 UTC
reproducible with LO 3.6.4.3. (Win7 Home, 64bit)

The charts are shown correctly in different colours in PowerPoint 2007 while they are shown only in greyscale in LO.
In addition, in PowerPoint 2007 you can see a footer which is not at all shown in LO.  Furthermore, the axis intervals are different between LO and PowerPoint.
Comment 3 Xisco Faulí 2014-03-03 11:06:27 UTC
it's still present in:
   - Libreoffice 4.1.4.2 Build  ID: 0a0440ccc0227ad9829de5f46be37cfb6edcf72
   - Libreoffice 4.2.1.1 Build  ID: d7dbbd7842e6a58b0f521599204e827654e1fb8b
   - Libreoffice 4.3.0.0.alpha0 ID: 95700a2d7d09893fe16aadb406e93bf7164f7422
Comment 4 Buovjaga 2014-10-06 12:18:05 UTC
Works ok for me (except for no shadow) on Win 7 64-bit 4.3.2.2 and today's 4.4.0.0 dev build.
Comment 5 A (Andy) 2014-10-06 20:06:27 UTC
As per Comment 4 I can also confirm that with LO 4.3.2.2 (Win 8.1) it is now much better, only the shadows are missing and the legends have another order.
Comment 6 Jorendc 2015-05-26 20:12:40 UTC
Looks fixed to me, tested using Windows 7 x64 with LibreOffice Version: 5.1.0.0.alpha1+
