Hi Falko, 1 4 u Frank Another note on this is that in Impress, where the data comes from the very simple data editor, error bars need to be functional too, so the solution to this problem should not be a reference to cells in a spreadsheet. Instead, similar to the Stock Charts, you should be able to put the error value as a third column in an XY chart. Incidentally, you can fake error bars by use of the Stock Chart option, adding and subtracting the error bars from the mean, then making the lines that connect them invisible. It's still not perfect -- the bars don't have horizontal lines at the top and bottom, and the stock chart annoyingly has Y-axis labels on both the right and the left, but it leads me to think that a solution to this problem (which seems to be a longstanding deficiency) would not be seriously difficult to implement. Thanks! Isn't this issue somewhat related to 366 ? I guess they could be merged together... Yes, I think this is essentially the same issue as bug 366. I would want to reiterate the comment from 366 that this is a serious limitation on OO Impress' usability for scientific audiences. Wish I had time to contribute code! -Harlan I find this issue reasonable to have but AFAIK it is not on our roadmap to 2.0. Nevertheless I think Bettina should raise this issue with the Chart Team. Hello Björn, I set it to OO.o Later. *** Issue 3179 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** We will bear this feature in mind. Is this feature planned for OO.o 2.0 ? It is definitely _the_ missing feature for scientists. If it is implemented, i will finally be able to fully switch to OO.o. Thanks guys for your great work! Sorry, this is duplicate to issue 366. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 366 *** closed as duplicate |
