A spreadsheet with 25 identical charts in one sheet

On windows there is appears to be an issue with the chart updating when the number of charts in a sheet exceeds the Cache for Inserted Objects value (which defaults to 20).

Attached is a spreadsheet which should reproduce the problem.

I tested in Version 4.3.5.2 although the issue was probably in all versions of 4.3.

Windows 7 64bit with latest patches.


Make sure Cache for Inserted Objects is set to 20. (if not change the value  to 20 and restart libre office).


Changing the value is of B2 from 1 to 10. Not all the charts will update although 20 will.

Behaviour does not reproduce in Libre Office 4.2 for Ubuntu with identical memory settings.

Increasing the value of Cache for Inserted Objects to 25 or above fixes the issue.

Note charts do not really have to be identical any 20+ charts will do it even if they are based on different values.

Note if you copy and paste one of the unupdated charts into sheet 2 and save and close the spreadsheet Libre Office will probably crash.

I can confirm with LO 4.3.4, win7. After save,close and reopen are charts correct.  
I can confirm crash (Note if you copy and paste one of the unupdated charts into sheet 2 and save and close the spreadsheet Libre Office will probably crash.). Crash occurs only on first opening of file.

This appears to be a duplicate of bug 86321 - it is fixed on master by the same commit. Some investigation yet to be done as to whether the fix is correct, which is why this hasn't been backported.

Just in case anybody should pass this bug: Bug 86321 has been fixed (effective from 7.1.4 and 7.2.0), which helps a lot on chart update problems. Not all problems are completely gone, though, and the test case from this bug is continued in bug 141799.
