PDF of the two graphs

My Calc shows
Version: 6.4.6.2 (x64)
Build ID: 0ce51a4fd21bff07a5c061082cc82c5ed232f115
CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19041; UI render: default; VCL: win; 
Locale: en-US (en_US); UI-Language: en-US
Calc: CL

I have a chart with the X axis values:
97.50%,92.50%,87.50%,82.50%,77.50%,72.50%,67.50%,62.50%,57.50%,52.50%,47.50%,42.50%,37.50%,32.50%,27.50%,22.50%,17.50%,12.50%,7.50%,2.50%
 and the Y axis values
1.52E+40,1.50E+40,1.46E+40,1.40E+40,1.33E+40,1.25E+40,1.17E+40,1.09E+40,1.00E+40,9.23E+39,8.48E+39,7.78E+39,7.18E+39,6.68E+39,6.36E+39,6.13E+39,5.48E+39,4.42E+39,2.92E+39,1.01E+39

If I leave the Y Axis with all scale settings Automatic it shows the min at 0 and the max at 9.22337203685478E+018. But the displayed max is 4.00E+20 as it should be. See the attached file part GraphAllAuto

When I change the scale Minimum to manual and put in 1.00E+20 it sets the min at 9.22337203685478E+018. The same as the grayed out values in Maximum and Major interval. See the attached file part GraphMinManual.

You cannot enter any manual value above 9.22337203685478E+018 anywhere on the Axis Scale, but the Automatic values are proper. This really causes a problem trying to graph large numbers that do not vary much because it always sets the Minimum to 0 and the changes do not show up if they are in the range of the first or second decimal point of the graphed value.

Spreadsheet with chart

Sorry, I didn't understand I have to use 0,xx for the percentages and my decimal separator was wrong for the locale I used. Now I have an XY chart that is working as an example.

It has the minimum set to 1,00E+20 and there is no problem.

Arch Linux 64-bit
Version: 7.2.2.2 / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 20(Build:2)
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.14; UI render: default; VCL: kf5 (cairo+xcb)
Locale: fi-FI (fi_FI.UTF-8); UI: fi-FI
7.2.2-1
Calc: threaded

Comment 7 Stéphane Guillou (stragu) 2021-11-28 13:50:10 UTC

The issue with the field automatically lowering the y axis min or max is reproducible in:

Version: 7.0.6.2
Build ID: 00(Build:2)
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.4; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Ubuntu package version: 1:7.0.6-0ubuntu0.18.04.1_lo1
Calc: threaded

But not reproducible in:

Version: 7.1.7.2 / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: c6a4e3954236145e2acb0b65f68614365aeee33f
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.4; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

So it was fixed somewhere in between. Marking as WORKSFORME.
