Created attachment 94578 [details]
The spreadsheet document whose charts were mishandled.

Problem description: 
Chart Borders cannot be made visible.

(Note: Version is 4.2.1.1,
Build ID: d7dbbd7842e6a58b0f521599204e827654e1fb8b, not 4.3.0.0)

Steps to reproduce:
1. Created new chart
2. Double-clicked the chart
3. Selected menu Format > Chart Area... > Borders
4. Set Style to Continuous, Color to Black, Width to 0.04", 
       Transparency to 0% and clicked OK.

Current behavior: Nothing happens.

Expected behavior: A black, continuous border should appear around the chart.

              
Operating System: Mac OS X
Version: 4.3.0.0.alpha0+ Master
Comment 1 A (Andy) 2014-02-23 12:19:22 UTC
already reproducible with LO 4.2.1.1 (Win8.1)
Comment 2 Niklas Johansson 2014-06-09 18:32:01 UTC
Still reproducible with LibreOffice 4.3.0.0.beta2
Comment 3 Niklas Johansson 2014-06-10 19:20:04 UTC
I used bibisect and ended up at the following two commits.

prevent some implicit iterator conversions

Looking deeper into the git history around that time a lot of changes was pushed to the chart area:

Would it make sense for me to do some manual builds around that time to try to narrow in on when the issue was introduced or is that just a waste of my time?

bug is observed in XP/SP3 and LibO 4.2.4.2.

In Version: 4.1.6.2
Build ID: 40ff705089295be5be0aae9b15123f687c05b0a
This bug is NOT reproducible. 
Format Chart Area -> Borders -> Continuous, produces a chart with a border. This regression occurred somewhere in the 4.2.x line.
