Open the attached spreadsheet.

Click on the cell E13. Now click on the chart wizard icon.

Now wait, and wait, and wait......

After the chart wizard window eventually opens the cpu will still stay busy for a considerable time and Calc will remain unresponsive. Wait for it to finish processing.

Once it's done with whatever it was doing cancel the wizard.

Now wait, and wait, and wait......

After the chart wizard window eventually closes once again the cpu will still stay busy for a considerable time and Calc will remain unresponsive.

Confirmed on 3.5.5.3 WinXp Sp3

I also tried clicking on a different cell instead of E13 and had the same problem.

Affects and annoys me too, version 4.2.8.2 on GNU/Linux.

Expected behavior:

* After clicking the Chart button or selecting the Insert | Object | Chart menu command, the Chart Wizard appears and is responsive immediately. The preview generation is started asynchronously or skipped altogether.

* As the user modifies settings that affect the preview, preview generation is restarted asynchronously.

* If the user clicks Finish in the Chart Wizard, preview generation is stopped and the actual chart generation starts. A Stop button is displayed; clicking it cancels chart generation.
