Example file from LO 5.3

Triangle shaped points appear upside down in Points and Lines charts when the file is saved as DOCX.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create an empty text document in LibreOffice Writer
2. Insert a Chart
3. Change the chart type to Points and Lines
4. Save the file as DOCX
5. Reopen the file either in LibreOffice Writer or Microsoft Word 2013

Actual results:
The triangles are upside down

Expected results:
The triangles in the DOCX file should look like in the ODT file

So, I took a look into the XML created by Excel, the important part:

<c:marker><c:symbol val="triangle"/><c:size val="5"/><c:spPr><a:solidFill><a:schemeClr val="accent3"/></a:solidFill><a:ln w="9525"><a:solidFill><a:schemeClr val="accent2"/></a:solidFill></a:ln><a:effectLst/></c:spPr></c:marker>

LibreOffice XLSX: 
<c:marker><c:symbol val="triangle"/><c:size val="8"/><c:spPr><a:solidFill><a:srgbClr val="ffd320"/></a:solidFill></c:spPr></c:marker> 

While in ODF it is
<style:chart-properties chart:symbol-type="named-symbol" chart:symbol-name="arrow-down" chart:symbol-width="0.25cm" chart:symbol-height="0.25cm" chart:link-data-style-to-source="true"/> 

So these are different drawing object in ODF and OOXML, but we are consistent with Excel when writing XLSX.

I'd say NOTABUG - it looks a bit different, but the import+export is consistent.
