Description NISZ LibreOffice Team 2018-10-26 08:57:39 UTC
Description:
Total results of Pivot tables are displayed as regular values when importing XLSX spreadsheets saved by Excel. This makes the charts hard to read in cases where there are many small values in a pivot table, because the sum is a much larger number than the individual values.

LibreOffice Calc only supports pivot charts in ODS format, so when a spreadsheet created in Calc is saved as XLSX pivot charts are converted to regular charts, but the total result isn't added as an individual value to the chart. Something similar would be desirable in short term when importing Excel-made XLSX files: display it as a regular chart, but do not add the total result to the chart. At least until we have proper support for pivot charts in OOXML (XLSX) format.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Excel and add some data to a new spreadsheet.
2. Create a pivot chart with the default settings.
3. Save the file as XLSX.
4. Open the file in LibreOffice Calc.

Actual Results:
Total result is added as last value to the pivot chart.

Expected Results:
Total result shouldn't be part of the chart.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
