In LO 5.0.2.2 (Win 7), I don't find the "time based charting" checkbox any more.
Still/again seeing the Time based charting checkbox in LO Calc 6.4.1.1 in two places: - Insert - Chart... Wizard, step Data Ranges, as described in Comment 2. - For existing charts: Double-click a chart, then choose Format - Data Ranges. A description of what this option does is still missing from the Help documentation, as far as I can tell. Reopening this bug accordingly as UNCONFIRMED. If others see the problem as well, please change to NEW. Also changing the Component from Chart to Documentation. Feel free to correct me if that is wrong.

Created attachment 159367 [details] Time based charting checkbox in Format - Data Ranges - LO Calc 6.4.2.2 Linux gtk3 Hmm, that's strange. Here are my screenshots, using LO 6.4.2.2 as well.
Ah, sorry, I see what is the problem now. I had "Enable experimental features (may be unstable)" enabled in LO Options -> Advanced. If disabling that, the Time based charting option is gone. I guess this means this bug report should be closed?
this is what I saw as well with 24.8: I had "Enable experimental features (may be unstable)" enabled in LO Options -> Advanced. If disabling that, the Time based charting option is gone.
