Description kurt.nordback@protonmail.com 2025-08-13 18:31:22 UTC
Description:
Charts in OOXML allow for styles defined in a style*.xml file, as documented in this schema: 
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/openspecs/office_standards/ms-odrawxml/a7bb9c01-d274-47ee-a16a-90e26877e8a4
LO currently does not support import/export of chart styles in this format.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. In Calc, create a chart, or open a file with an existing one.
2. Select the chart in the UI. 

Actual Results:
There is no "styles" tab provided for chart styles, and no mechanism for saving modified styles.

Expected Results:
Chart styles can be modified, saved, and re-loaded, with the effect that they are available in the UI and applied to a given chart.


Reproducible: Always
