Hi!

LibreOffice 3.5.1.2
and Win7 x64.

I opened a new writer document, inserted a chart (german UI) and changed the sata ( 2 rows; 2 columns). Finally I tried to change the colour of one Datarow. It didn't work (pls. refer to the attached file...)
Italo Vignoli tried it, so  it might be a REGRESSION ( http://www.italovignoli.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/pippo.jpg )

ASAP I will try it with the latest RC...

Please attach a test document and explain how to reproduce it.

And please only mark it as a regression if you tested it yourself with an older version and can tell us in which version it was still working. Regression is a keywork to make it easier for devs to find commits introducing bugs.

1. Double click diagram (appears toolbar "Formatting" for diagram)
2. on left side of toolbar select Data series 'Open Office'
3. press "Format selection" on the same toolbar
4. change color to another
Expected: color changed
Actually: nothing happens

Thank you Duncan, that was reported in bug 153172 and the fix will land in 7.5.2 and is already in 7.4.6.
Comment 15 Stéphane Guillou (stragu) 2023-03-20 15:38:58 UTC
Regarding the bug described here, it is still reproducible in:

Version: 7.5.1.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: fcbaee479e84c6cd81291587d2ee68cba099e129
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: en-US (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

Noting that it affects all chart types I tested, not just donuts.
There is some variation in how other formatting options fail (e.g. transparency and Starting angle work, but border settings worked until I changed chart types)

Dear Florian Reisinger,

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.
 
If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help - About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not 
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from https://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword


Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat: https://web.libera.chat/?settings=#libreoffice-qa

Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

Warm Regards,
QA Team
