Description Ron 2020-12-06 00:14:22 UTC
Description:
I have a spreadsheet set up with a graph using X-axis 1 day date interval, i.e. every day the date value is displayed at the x-axis. I then protect the entire tab and spreadsheet before I save as Excel 2007-365 (.xlsx).
When I re-open the file it has lost the manual setting for the X-axis interval and has put it back to AUTOMATIC (=2 day interval). It should always keep the settings I put in but very annoyingly it overrides the saved settings and displays the graph using automatic 2 day intervals which I hate !!!! WHY ???????

Fix this and make sure it doesn't fuck up my spreadsheet every time !
If you don't fix I will have to revert back to Office which I'd rather not do. 

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create graphs and uncheck Automatic X-Axis interval
2.Use X-axis date format 1 day interval, i.e. it displays each date on x-axis
3. Secure the sheet, password protect and then save as .xlsx
4. re-open the previously saved file and look at the x-axis
5. it will show 2 day interval and have checked Automatic interval again which I had UNchecked before saving

Actual Results:
Again and again if fails to keep the settings I saved, messing up my graphs every time !

Expected Results:
KEEP the graphs settings and interval set to 1 day manually


Reproducible: Always

This is likely duplicate of 137917. There has recently been a fix for that. Please try a nightly versions: https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/master/current.html. You can install it parallel to your regularly version.

Sample for testing X-axis graph interval setting

The graph scaling in each month (sorry all is in Dutch in the example but you will know what I mean) had an interval set on X-axis to 1 day whereas I de-selected 'automatic' format but after saving in .xlsx and then re-opening it reverts back to 'automatic' and 2 day interval for date format used.

Screenshot of settings before saving : https://www.dropbox.com/s/rtwevclv9ljlgt1/Schermafdruk%202020-12-17%2021.54.50.png?dl=0

After saving as Excel .xlsx and re-opening the Main interval has changed to 2 day interval whereas some options have again ticks in the box as "automatic"

Please note that the password is blank (empty) although password protect is enabled
