Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 60196
line chart curve becomes looped!!!!
Last modified: 2013-02-24 21:20:36 UTC
Steps to reproduce: 1. Insert a new ole-chart in writer 2. edit it 3. change chart type to lines 4. increase line width 5. voila... Bug: The curve becomes looped!!!! say from the end it goes stright to the start. Have no clue why there appears a circular loop, data are clean. Expected behavoiur: The curve display from first to last data in a curve, but without looping from end to start.
which line width do you increase? and how?
Default line width is 0.00 I then double click the curve resp. datarow -> tab line -> width = 0.10cm See attached screenshots for illustration. Hope you can reproduce it.
Created attachment 33017 [details] exple chart used for the following steps
Created attachment 33019 [details] line properties (after doubleclicking line)
Created attachment 33021 [details] line properties again (... after changing line width to 0.10)
Created attachment 33022 [details] forgot this (change type to line)
I cannot reproduce it (on Windows XP Pro SP2 with OOo 2.0.1). Have you changed the default colors because they look different for me? maybe an OS problem.
No. I haven't changed nothing. It is even reproducable after deleting my users ooo settings. (rm -rf .ooo*) Can anyone test and report the gnome behaviour? Can other reproduce it on kde? Thank you
I can confirm this issue. In fact, the line properties dialog of all parts of OOo (also draw and impress) are broken in the same way for me. As soon as the line width is > 0.00", arrows are not properly applied anymore, and the line width changes along the length of the line. I'm sure this is the same bug, because the changing line width can also be seen in the screenshots that have already been attached to this bug. I am running OOo 2.0.1 on Ubuntu Linux 5.10.
Created attachment 33279 [details] Screenshot showing the line-properties problem in OOo draw.
Created attachment 33280 [details] One more set of screenshots, before and after. This one is before, with line width 0.00"
Created attachment 33281 [details] After increasing the line width, now the open polygon is closed, and the straight line has a funky line-width effect
Some more info: I have now checked the OOo packages provided for Ubuntu (from http://people.ubuntu.com/~doko/OOo2/ ) and the ones from the main OOo website. Both have the problem. I have reverted to OOo 2.0.0, and the problem has gone away. I think the priority of this bug should be at least P2, because large parts of OOo (at least draw, impress, chart) are pretty much unusable on Linux as long as this problem exists.
I cannot reproduce this (I installed an SRC680m1 build 8890, which is OOo 2.0.1rc5) on a Debian Liux (testing) with 2.6.8 kernel running xorg 6.8.2 with a Matrox G550 card and a Matrox driver. Your problem may be related to the version of X11, the graphics card, the card driver. What configuration do you have?
Created attachment 33298 [details] $ xpdyinfo
I use X.Org version: 6.8.2 Is the rc5 the same as 2.0.1or were there any changes? Did you compile it or just install it? Do you use GNOME or KDE or just plain X? Don't think it's related to the graphic cards. I reproduce it with X.org's ATI radeon "radeon" and with "i810".
