Description Adam Johnston 2020-10-11 14:38:32 UTC
In Calc, create a chart, select the Data Series, Format Data Series.
Icon/From file...
Choose a simple circle with fill and line created in Inkscape.
The chart renders fine.
Keep working with the file, changing things, and within a minute or so it will crash.
I have tried to use the standard symbols:
C:\Program Files\LibreOffice\share\gallery\bullets
These are not good looking graphics.
If I try to edit them in Inkscape then the changes do not get applied in the file.  If I add new svg files to this folder
C:\Program Files\LibreOffice\share\gallery\bullets
Then Calc does not detect them.

Are these bullets hard coded into Calc?
Is there a format that should be used for creating or editing these symbols.  I cant find any documentation, and the svg files themseleves do not offer any meta comments that could help.

In this file, if you go to any of the graphs, change the symbols, some of the points change, others dont.  Random crashes too.
