Created attachment 140849 [details] example spreadsheet ## Steps to reproduce * create a table with 2 columns. The first column contains dates, its header is called "date"" * create a pivot table with the "date" column as row field, the second column as a column field * create a pivot chart based on the pivot table, chart type "Line" See the example document : web_error.ods ## Actual behaviour * With a chart type Line, it's impossible to specify that the chart is time based (the X axis) * With a chart type XY, the X axis shows numbers and not dates, and the numbers are related to the line number of each values in the pivot table See the sheet called "Table dynamique_php_error_1" ## Expected behaviour The behavior must be the same as a normal chart based on a normal table (not a pivot table) containing the same values (see sheet3 in the attached document) * With a chart type Line, I should be able to specify that the chart is time based (the X axis). * the check box "time based" is in the second step of the chart wizard, "Data range", which is inactive for a pivot chart * With a chart type XY, the X axis should show dates and should be time based It's a kind of a regression, because before the pivot chart function, I was able to create a normal chart based on a pivot table that could have the expected behaviour. Obviously the chart was not linked to the pivot table, but it was easy to adapt. It's more complicated now, as I have to copy all the data in another sheet to create the right chart. ## Desktop configuration **Operating system:** Linux 4.13 (Kubuntu 17.10 Artful 64 bits) Plasma 5.12.3 (kubuntu-ppa/backports) **LibreOffice version:** Version: 5.4.6.2 Build ID: 1:5.4.6~rc2-0ubuntu0.17.10.1 CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 4.13; UI render: default; VCL: kde4; Locale: fr-FR (fr_FR.UTF-8); Calc: single Coming from http://ppa.launchpad.net/libreoffice/libreoffice-5-4/ubuntu
Confirm. X axis is type Numeric. Version: 6.1.0.0.alpha0+ Build ID: 1fbe46cf08f525e78016feef83f4c38b79b337ba CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 4.4; UI render: default; VCL: gtk2; TinderBox: Linux-rpm_deb-x86_64@70-TDF, Branch:master, Time: 2018-03-24_23:04:38
I have the same issue. I think a more general solution should allow any data type that can be mapped to numeric range to be the value for an x/y-chart based on a pivot table. What are the plans to implement this feature?

Created attachment 178969 [details] pivot chart dates scaling left graph on tab 3 frome pivot chart, right one ame data copied and made with a normal chert, observe differences between both and see hos the date range is affected by pivot chart.
hi, this behavior is stille present on libreoffice at least 7.1. the initial issue is that on the pivot chart, the dates are taken element by element on the x scale, the range isnt correctly calculated for dates if there is non contiguous dates, they will be displayed as if they were contiguous, this is a very annoying bug, since combined with the fact you cannot make directly anymore a normal chart from cells of a pivot table, it makes creation of a Time based graph difficult.
