Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 69423
charting error bars
Last modified: 2013-02-24 21:22:29 UTC
Testing milestone8. The statistics feature in charts is very nice, especially the regression feature. But I believe additional options would be useful especially for scientific work: 1) Allow the errorbars to be user specified. If this option is selected a range is input. Default would assume columns label, values-y, errors-y. The y-error attribute in the chart would selectable from Data Ranges as errors-y. 2)Lower priority - option of specifying error-yhi, error-ylow, error-x in a similar way. 3) As well as the %error etc options, one should have an option for error = sqrt(y) - Poisson statistics. Thanks.
Change Summary, set Keyword @IHa. pls cover this enhancement
Hi olinart, cell ranges for error bars is already requested with issue 366. For different feature request please write separat issues instead of listing differetn requests in one issue. Thanks a lot! Ingrid. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 366 ***
Point 3 is an enhancement simpler that Issue 366. Possibly 366 needs some restructuring of the code, which might be why it's been unresolved for so long. sqrt(y) errors could be implemented analogously to % errors.
Hi olinart, please write a new issue only containing point 3. This multi-request issues always create confusion and trouble. Could you also please explain in more detail what is expected to be calculated. And in which areas are those errorbars needed? Thanks a lot. Ingrid
Hi olinart. Thanks for creating the separat issue 69664 :-). So I now can close this as duplicate I think. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 366 ***
