Created attachment 119526 [details] example chart to test bug Steps to reproduce: 1. Create a pie chart in Calc 2. Edit the chart 3. Click on on different wedges 4. Note color indicated by the sidepanel -> properties -> Area -> Fill Color does NOT change when you select different series. 5. Change the chart type to bar chart 6. Note the color indicated by the data series, changes when you select different series. This is the desired behavior. 7. Select a single data point on the bar chart. 8. Note the color indicated by the point does not change when you select different points. Note the you can change the color, but the color shown in the sidebar does not reflect the wedge/point color. If you use the "Format data series" for pie or "Format data point" dialog box for bar charts to change color, the dialog box shows the correct color unlike the sidebar element.
Confirmed. In bar chart type, it takes the color of the data series rather than the data point color. Version: 5.1.0.0.alpha1+ Build ID: 143fb0a4b5d4ab69d4928299d8112ab95d99870a TinderBox: Linux-rpm_deb-x86_64@70-TDF, Branch:master, Time: 2015-10-11_00:06:41 Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8)
