Description Markus Elfring 2019-12-27 10:44:44 UTC
Information for charts can be provided by the dialogue “Data table”.
https://help.libreoffice.org/6.4/en-GB/text/schart/01/03010000.html

I suggest to store rows from such a data table into a choosable target by pressing an action button or context menu entry.

Selection:
* All
* Marked entries
* Filter criterium

Output:
* External file
* Copy entries into a table of the same document

While I don't get the point of "store rows" (likely also columns) "into a choosable target" (unclear), I agree with more interactions here. Copy/past from/to other programs via clipboard would enhance the usability greatly.

Can you imagine better support for mentioned data export possibilities?

Thanks.

Will it be safer to track software development progress for such functionality by other issues?

I propose that Bug 129643 be marked as a duplicate of this bug, and that this bug is used to track the enhancement "Allow import/export and copy/paste of data from and into chart data table".
