Screenshot of document in Excel 2007

Tested in Calc Version: 5.0.2.1.0+, Build ID: 00m0(Build:1), Locale: en-GB (en_GB.UTF-8) on openSuSE 13.1 (64-bit).

Observations of things going wrong in Calc:
-Graphs are squashed vertically to about half the height, exposing a blue background square.
- X axis titles are misplaced
- Several "enclosed objects" (excel description) with equations have a blue background, and can not be edited in any way.

To be fair, in excel 2007 on the Windows test machine the enclosed objects can not be edited as well. The equation editor might not be installed on this machine.
Comment 3 Stephan van den Akker 2015-09-16 10:08:40 UTC
Confirmed in LibreOfficeDev MASTER Version: 5.1.0.0.alpha1+, Build ID: 88b6dd3ea77ca9f6d5fac2965cea6ff0634e6ba5, Locale: en-GB (en_GB.UTF-8) on openSuSE 13.1

An additional observation of an import error in Calc (see also comment 2):
- Direct text entries for the Range Name are not imported correctly.

I have observed similar import errors with other XLS files in the past. attachment 118759 [details] is an excellent test case for these.
Comment 4 Stephan van den Akker 2015-09-16 10:14:14 UTC
These errors do not occur in OpenOffice.org 3.3.0 (32-bit) on Windows 7:
- Graphs are not squashed vertically;
- X axis titles are placed correctly;
- No blue backgrounds for graphs and "enclosed objects".

Therefore marking as a regression, possible bibisect candidate.
Comment 5 Xisco Faulí 2016-09-12 12:25:13 UTC
Adding keyword 'bibisectRequest'.
Comment 6 Aron Budea 2016-09-16 05:20:14 UTC
Reproduced with v4.0.0.3 / Ubuntu 16.04, except blue background, that is reproduced with v4.1.0.4. Adjusting version.

Comment 8 Buovjaga 2018-05-25 12:28:42 UTC
Still repro, but only the squashing. Multiple issues in one report would be wrong anyway.

Bibisected with 43all on Linux to range https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/log/?qt=range&q=ae4e4a11d4300f7448cb6bd170fcb034542caddc...4316e643ef345b0f673b4a03a80a4b7cb3185588

I am unable to locate a suspicious commit.

Did detective work in the range: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Bibisect#Doing_detective_work_inside_a_commit_range

Maybe it is this mega-commit: https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=44cfc7cb6533d827fd2d6e586d92c61d7d7f7a70

It has "fix for #118525#: Using primitives for chart sub-geometry visualisation"

Dear Geert Closius,

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

Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

Warm Regards,
QA Team
