Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 79614
Creating a chart in a protected table
Last modified: 2016-07-28 07:03:05 UTC
If you want to change a cell in a protected table you get a warning that this isn't possible. But, if you want to create a diagram with the icon in the symbol bar by dragging with the mouse there happens nothing. this is confusing for an inexperienced user. There should come up a warning, that the table is protected.
Issue type changed.
Can't repro using 2.4m239 on WinXP - Chart button and menu item are disabled in protected sheet. jolatt, please specify detailed steps you take to generate steps

Hi kapalagin, you are right using the default chart button. I have changed my symbol bars and added the chart button to the standard symbol bar. I didn't keep in mind writing this issue. With this button I can create in OOo 2.3.1 and 680m140 (Pavels build) a diagram in a protected table. But there is strange behaviour after creating the diagram in a protected table. Deselect the the diagram by clicking in a cell you can't select the diagram anymore (I think thats normal). Within the diagram you can select a cell, a group of cells. Behavour is as there is no diagram. A double click in the diagram results in highlighting a cell and the message, that a protected cell can't be changed. Think that shouldn't be so. I assume that there must be a message, that the diagram can't be changed, not the cells under the diagram.
As discussed in users@de.openoffice.org there are two symbols for diagrams. One 'diagram' the other 'insert diagram'. The last isn't greyed out if the table is protected.
Confirming with 2.4m241 on WinXP - using "Insert chart" button on "Insert" toolbar you can _create_ chart in otherwise protected sheet, not just click the button.
Bug still exists in AOO 4.1.1. The relevant button starts the chart wizard.
