What's new ?

Component : Chart

• 24614 : enable reverse scales on axes
  • Description : It is possible now to change the direction of axes. Thus the user can choose where the lower values and where the higher values are displayed at an axis.
  • Feature Announcement : http://graphics.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=features&msgNo=196
  • Specification : http://specs.openoffice.org/chart/Chart_Scales_and_Intervals.odt
  • Test case specification : http://www.openoffice.org/nonav/issues/showattachment.cgi/48782/reverse_direction.htm
  • CWS : chart14 integrated in SRC680m235
• 26795 : display bars on different axis next to each other
  • Description : If two axes are shown in a bar chart, and some data series are attached to the first one, while some other data series are attached to the second one, both sets of data series are shown independently , one box overlapping the other. As a result, bars attached to the first y-axis are partly or completely hidden by bars attached to the second y-axis. To avoid this, there is an option to display bars side by side, as if they were attached only to one axis. To enable this setting the option “Show Bars side by side” must be checked in the dialog. See specification control #7 and chapter 1.3 for details. (The other parts of the spec describe no new features)
