Description kyoshida 2008-08-01 04:38:43 UTC 
When exporting to an xls file, Calc drops the subtitle of a chart (probably)
because Excel's chart doesn't support subtitles (but you can insert it as an 2nd
line of the main title text).

The patch I'm going to attach will take the subtitle text, and append it to the
main title text as an extra line.  It's a little dirty workaround, but I think
it's better than losing the subtitle text entirely.

Nice patch. As a long term solution I suggest to export the chart subtitle as
embedded textbox object, once the import of these embedded objects is
implemented (see issue 15563).

I'm adding this comment to all open issues with Issue Type == PATCH.  We have 220 such issues, many of them quite old.  I apologize for that.  

We need your help in prioritizing which patches should be integrated into our next release, Apache OpenOffice 4.0.

If you have submitted a patch and think it is applicable for AOO 4.0, please respond with a comment to let us know.

On the other hand, if the patch is no longer relevant, please let us know that as well.

If you have any general questions or want to discuss this further, please send a note to our dev mailing list:  dev@openoffice.apache.org

Thanks!
