I've replicated this issue in 4.2.0 AOO420m1(Build:9800) Rev.1635806. I opened the pptx in MS PowerPoint first and can see that the presentation contains 1 slide with an embedded chart. In PP I can right-click and edit the data. Then I opened the file in OO (Using File>Open) when the presentation opens in Impress you only see the blank chart. When I right click the chart and select Chart Data Table it is blank. After a quick google search I believe this is a duplicate of 115820?
I've done some further investigation and here are my findings: #My config: Windows 8.1 MS office 2013 OO 4.2.0 Steps: 1. Create a new presentation in MS PP 2013 and add 1 blank slide 2. Insert a chart (I selected a line graph and used the default dataset) 3. Saved file as ChartTest1.pptx 4. Then saved file as ChartTest2.ppt (I get a compatibility warning) 5. Then saved file as ChartTest3.odp (I get a different compatibility message) 6. Open Impress and then Open ChartTest1.pptx with file>open - #A Blank chart is displayed without data 7. Open ChartTest2.ppt with File>open #The chart is displayed with the data I expected from PP. #It is harder to select the chart in this file. I manage to find the outline and can then click edit. This behaves differently to the pptx file (it launches Excel). Does OO see this as an embedded object or a chart? #I am able to change the data set and save which is reflected in the chart displayed in Impress 8. Open ChartTest3.odp with File>Open #The chart is displayed with the data I expected from PP. #I can select the chart and edit the data table directly from within Impress It seems that there is a problem populating the data table when opening a pptx file containing a chart.

Pamela Quintana, 07/11/16 Worked with version 4.1.2 installed on Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 64-bits I was able to replicate it, using steps provided in previous posts. Pre-conditions Create a pptx and Insert(Use the Insert menu) to the current slide a chart(you can leave the default data for the chart) 1. In OO IMPRESS open the pptx from pre-conditions using the File> Open menu option 2. Review the chart in the opened pptx file Actual Result: Chart is displayed blank Expected Result: We might want to properly display chart from a pptx as it is in when opening it with powerpoint
