Still present in LO 6.1.0.0.alpha1+ Build ID: 23c5125148a8110d88385b29570bf0b7d4400458 CPU threads: 2; OS: Windows 6.1; UI render: default; TinderBox: Win-x86@42, Branch:master, Time: 2018-05-12_00:15:25 Locale: fr-FR (fr_FR); Calc: CL
In the ODF standard there is a "chart:reverse-direction" attribute, which is missing from the OOXML standard. By default in LibreOffice it is set to false (there is no problem with this in the case of odt, ods,... files), but when you save the file to docx, xlsx,... and reopen/reload it, the chart will behave as if this attribute would have been set to true. So chart:reverse-direction="true" behave the same way like the docx charts/diagrams, but the default value in LibreOffice is false. Maybe I can suggest that the default value should be set to true in LibreOffice or the false value should behave like the true value now. Search for: "20.44 chart:reverse-direction" in this file: http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.2/os/OpenDocument-v1.2-os-part1.pdf And you can see there: "False is the default." Other downloads of the ODF standard: https://www.oasis-open.org/standards
This isn't specific to DOCX and opening the result in MSO, the chart also shows mirrored when the saved file is reopened in LO.
Created attachment 149668 [details] Sample pie chart in ODS Here's an ODS that behaves the same way.
Created attachment 155762 [details] One chart with chart:reverse-direction false, the other with true http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.2/os/OpenDocument-v1.2-os-part1.html#property-chart_reverse-direction ODF 1.2 has the attribute chsrt:revers-direction, which can be used to carry the direction information, and LibreOffice renders it already correctly. Only that there is no UI for it.
Kelemen Gábor committed a patch related to this issue. It has been pushed to "master": https://git.libreoffice.org/core/commit/41fa7244746819411f209110f13af43941f17ce8 tdf#108059 Introduce compatibility key for pie chart orientation It will be available in 7.1.0. The patch should be included in the daily builds available at https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/ in the next 24-48 hours. More information about daily builds can be found at: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Testing_Daily_Builds Affected users are encouraged to test the fix and report feedback.
It was not fixed in the following versions: Version: 7.2.4.1 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 20(Build:1) CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: ja-JP (ja_JP.UTF-8); UI: ja-JP Debian package version: 1:7.2.4-3 Calc: threaded Version: 7.1.8.1 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: e1f30c802c3269a1d052614453f260e49458c82c CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: ja-JP (ja_JP.UTF-8); UI: ja-JP Calc: threaded
Change should be explained, where is that "compatibility key for pie chart orientation".
It was also not fixed in the following daily build: Version: 7.4.0.0.alpha0+ / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 9cc3672a4d7e9c9a647d388dba493bbb28d96da2 CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: ja-JP (ja_JP.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded However, when saving to xlsx, I got the following warning message: It's the same with 7.2 / 7.1 as well as daily build. 'This document may contain formatting or content that cannot be saved in the currently selected file format "Word 2007-365".'
I don't understand why this was closed as FIXED. After exporting, chart is still mirrored, when opened in both LO and MSO 2016. From the user perspective, the export is still broken.
