The mentioned chart has its own dataset. It has no reference to cells on a sheet. Reply to Comments From Oliver Craemer 2003-07-07 06:19 PDT Yes, so it is. I do not know how it happened that mentioned chart does not use data from first sheet, might be I made something wrong when I configured the chart :-) I' do not know whether EXCEL can handle such charts. Should the OOo export filter correct that? By the way: samte test results with 644m11 Rainer Yes, constant source data for charts is possible in Excel: - Open empty Excel sheet - Insert -> Chart -> Finish (an empty window appears) - Right-Click -> Source-Data -> Series - Add -> Values -> ={1,2,3,4} (or ={1;2;3;4} in German locale) These construct is called "constant matrix", and can be used in spreadsheet formulas too. Calc does not support them, so the Excel filters do not support them. The problem is, that in Excel some of the data series can be linked to cells, and others can have constant values. In Calc it is only possible to have either constant values or linked values for all series. The new chart implementation [1] will support separate source data for each data series. And it is planned to add support for constant matrixes in Calc. Therefore this should be fixed if this new functionality is available.

The issue description there is short and very easy to understand. Therefor I would suggest to exceptionally close this older issue as duplicate. Close as duplicate to issue 64821 as suggested by Ingrid. Matrix constants are possible now in formulas, but still not possible for data series. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of issue 64821 *** |
