This is confirmed on LibreOffice 3.3 so it's inherited from OOo. Changing version.

Ubuntu 14.10 x64
LibreOffice 3.3 and 4.5

To Reproduce:
1. Download data.
2. Double click scatterplot chart
3. Single click on somewhat outlier near 0 (left bottom quadrant closest to 0)
4. Single click same point

Observed:
Point is selected, cells F70 and G70 are highlighted.

5. Click off of chart;
6. Delete values in F70 and G70

Observed:
A different point than that selected gets deleted

7. Undo

Observed:
Deleted point returns

8. Delete values in F80 and G80

Observed: Point that you originally selected is now gone.


Expected: When you select that point, F80 and G80 should be highlighted, not F70 and G70.
Comment 2 Matthew Francis 2014-12-09 09:41:36 UTC
Workaround:

- Sort the data by the column for the X axis
- Uncheck "Sort by X values" in the "Chart Type" dialog

Then selecting the points highlights the correct row
Comment 3 Joel Madero 2015-03-16 20:23:39 UTC
Because there is a workaround I am prioritizing as such:

Minor - can slow down but will not prevent high quality/professional work;
Low - default


Possibly an easy hack so asking for advice from devs.
Comment 4 mikeschaerer 2015-03-17 12:26:45 UTC
Alternative workaround:

You can just hover over the point without clicking. This gives you x and y values. You can then manually exclude this point from the selection by creating a new chart where you (de)select individual rows by holding the Control Key.
Comment 5 Matthew Francis 2015-03-17 13:21:46 UTC
A workaround isn't a fix. There's still a bug there

Dear Riccardo Vianello,

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
