Problem description: Chart elements subtitle and Y-axis orientation (and sometimes even chart data) are lost when saving to .xlsx format. This may be a known limitation of the Office Open XML filter, I appreciate you get a warning that the document may not me saved correctly, but as you always get that it's hard to know if it actually applies. Steps to reproduce: 1. Create a spreadsheet with some data. 2. Insert a chart for the data. Enter a subtitle and a Y-axis label. 3. Save the chart as a "Microsoft Excel 2007/2010 XML (.xlsx)" file. 4. Close the file. 5. Open the file. Current behavior: The subtitle is no longer present, the Y-axis label is no longer vertically oriented. (I've also had chart data no longer be displayed but this isn't consistent). Expected behavior: The subtitle is saved and displayed, the vertical orientation of the Y-axis label is retained. Operating System: Windows 7 Version: 4.1.1.2 rc
reproducible with LO 4.1.4.2 (Win8)
Reproducible with version 4.2.4.2 (Build ID: 420m0(Build:2)) on Linux Mint 17.0 (64-bit)

Re-tested with LibreOffice 5.0.1.2 on Microsoft Windows 7. Issue appears to be fixed.
I'll leave this as RESOLVED WORKSFORME. The Y-axis label orientation is now retained as expected. The subtitle is still lost but it looks like Excel doesn't have a subtitle for charts so one couldn't reasonable expect it to be retained.
