Created attachment 180083 [details] Chart showing problem I have a spreadsheet in which I've embedded two charts. To allow both charts to be combined I created one with a transparent background. I then placed the one chart on top of the other. After the Tuesday May 10th Windows 10 updates the background chart no longer displays correctly. The chart is scrunched. I can click on the chart and it looks fine. It scrunches when I bring the other chart forward. I've enclosed a screenshot of the problem. The Chart worked properly on Monday evening and Tuesday evening. The update occurred Tuesday night-Wednesday morning sometime. Wednesday evening I could not make the chart appear properly. Each time I save and reopen the spreadsheet the problem is worse. I have attempted to open older copies and to restore from backup. The problem remains for all instances. Windows 10 with all updates. Problem verified in LibreOffice 7.3.2 and 7.3.3 John
I disassembled the malfunctioning chart. The specific problem was caused by some vertical lines added to the charge using the drawing tools. For some reason the lines blew up and extended outside the chart boundaries. I don't know whether the lines were like that before the update and the update has some graphic API that misinterprets the line meta-data or if the update corrupts the meta-data. The fact the situation was getting worse on saving/reopening leans toward data corruption. Old charts that were working before the update are still not working and after saving/reopening the corrected file the problem reappears. There is something in the graphic engine that's corrupting the lines. John
Hello, Thank you for filing the bug. Please send us a sample document, as this makes it easier for us to verify the bug. I have set the bug's status to 'NEEDINFO', so please do change it back to 'UNCONFIRMED' once you have attached a document. (Please note that the attachment will be public, remove any sensitive information before attaching it.) How can I eliminate confidential data from a sample document? https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/FAQ#How_can_I_eliminate_confidential_data_from_a_sample_document.3F Thank you
Created attachment 181776 [details] Requested sample file I've enclosed a copy of the file. If you open it in the current version of LibreOffice the vertical lines in the chart will be elongated. The original the lines were within the colored part of the chart. On opening you will see they are elongated past that area. Make a minor change to a cell and save, close and reopen the spreadsheet. You will observe the lines have lengthened again. Each iteration will cause the lines to grow longer. The lines originally marked the boundary between months. As they lengthen they become skewed. There are no instructions about where to upload the file so I'm enclosing it with this email. I'll also try to upload it to the bug report.

it's ok in Version: 7.4.0.2 (x64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 1512ce97d7ed39dce3121f7e15651fd8895f950e CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19044; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: ro-RO (ro_RO); UI: en-US Calc: threaded
Working well in Version: 7.5.0.0.alpha0+ (x86) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 550392aeb849b326aa0d5d84a0ec1d28d3d42503 CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19044; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: ro-RO (ro_RO); UI: en-US Calc: threaded
I see in the comments the problem is fixed in version 7.4.02. The current available release is 7.3.5. What is the expected release date for 7.4? Thanks, John
7.4 is in prerelease now. https://www.libreoffice.org/download/download/?type=win-x86_64&version=7.4.0&lang=en
To be sure that problem is fixed in 7.4, tester should first reproduce with 7.3.
Looks good in Version: 7.5.0.0.alpha0+ / LibreOffice Community Build ID: a0bc0cc81b597aa81189355a8125753d6b873cce CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: cs-CZ (cs_CZ.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded and Version: 7.3.6.2 / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 30(Build:2) CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: cs-CZ (cs_CZ.UTF-8); UI: cs-CZ Ubuntu package version: 1:7.3.6-0ubuntu0.22.04.1 Calc: threaded @John, please, can you retest with newer version? Thank you.
I'm at version 7.3.3.2 and it works great. I re-added all my lines! Which version did you want me to test with? The downloads page shows 7.4.1 as the bleeding edge version and 7.3.6 as the stable version. I don't usually do the early adopter version as I'm just an ordinary user. Thanks for your great work, John

I re-added all my lines! I hope you mean that it works O in 7.3.6.2. I didn't reproduce with 7.3.0 like described, but I did that opening was wrong, artifacts (like frozen screen parts) in chart. LO 7.3.6 seems OK for me. I understand this may be closed. If not, please explain. > Which version did you want me to test with?

Normally it's prudent to keep Still for work and that's 7.3.6 now, soon 7.3.7. Best is to test with daily master from https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/master/current.html that installs in addition to working LO and doesn't take extensions, so it's useful for testing of specific bug and general changes. > Thanks for your great work, John Thanks to you too for reporting and retesting.
I installed 7.4.1 to test. Works, no problem. John
