Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 106954
Allow to show the series name within data labels
Last modified: 2013-09-25 20:42:04 UTC
When creating charts in Excel if you right click, Chart Options, Data Labels "Series Name". This option includes the name of the series on the chart. I have examples but cannot attach to this issue. I have researched this issue and was informed that currently Series Names are not available. I was encouraged to to submit an issue to request that feature.
valid request. Currently OOo shows only "data series 1" or "data series 2" etc, although a name is used in the data range dialog.
Yes, displaying the series name within data labels is a missing feature that should be implemented within OOo. Thanks for reporting this issue!
