Description rsking84 2010-09-23 05:01:44 UTC

It would be very helpful if the Chart module contained a button or command to 
flip the data series assigned to the x- and y- axes of a scatter chart. E.g. the
X series become the Y series, and vice-versa.  This button should be located
inside the data ranges dialog box, close to the entry boxes where the x and y
ranges are specified.

This seems to be a duplicate to issue 4770. Maybe you can add your vote there.
Thanks!

I don't think this is really a duplicate.  All I'm talking about is having an
easy way to switch the XY data on a scatter chart (e.g. move X to Y and Y to X),
instead of having to copy/paste it manually.  Very simple.

The above-referenced issue is related, but appears more subtle as it has to do
with the way OO renders chart data.  In this post, I'm not suggesting we need
any new chart types or changes to the drawing logic, merely a simple way to swap
one cell range for another.

Hm, for usability reasons maybe its make sence, but feature with Prio 5; i think
its better to cover this issue with i4770 so iha will have the focus also on it. OK?
