Comment 1 m_a_riosv 2016-03-05 01:09:06 UTC
For me when selecting Spreadsheets in the file type filter it shows:

Spreadsheets (*.odc)

What I think are the extension for chart files. It can be saved, while editing a chart, with save as.

Comment 2 Yousuf Philips (jay) (retired) 2016-03-05 03:07:11 UTC
The second entry is title "ODF Chart" which shows *.odc files, so whats the point of 2 entries with the exact same filter.

I can confirm - value "speadsheets" and "chart" in listbox filter the same extension .odc.

Cannot see the option to insert chart from file in Version: 6.2.2.2 (x64)

It is absent even in Customize dialog, searching for "chart".

Has it been removed, e.g. in relation to fix for tdf#93005?
Comment 6 NISZ LibreOffice Team 2019-11-12 14:18:56 UTC
.uno:InsertObjectChartFromFile was removed in commit 

https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/plugins/gitiles/core/+/d543e8dfd3d8ae718e29304a155e1cf70d08325d%5E%21

It's safe to say this was fixed by the feature removal in bug #93005
