Created attachment 123422 [details] Test ODS document The chart wizard behaves strangely when trying to pass a column containing categories for an XY (scatter) chart. Let me illustrate this with the attached file. * If you select only columns B and C (including their headings) and create an XY chart using the chart wizard, you get a correct result: X is used for the X axis, Y for the Y axis. Fine * Now, if you select the whole table (columns A, B, and C), column A is correctly detected as representing the categories. But now X and Y are considered as two different series with only Y-axis values, and no X-axis values. This behaviour is exactly what you get if you create a Line chart. But I argue that this does not make much sense for an XY (scatter) chart: the very nature of this type of chart is to represent both X and Y. The most logical result would be to create a single data series with X for X-axis, Y for Y-axis, and column A for categories. Then, categories should be added as data labels by default (since you specified them, it means you want to use them).
Hi @Milan, I'm agree, specially selecting XY chart and no numerical values in the first column.
The errorwas introduced between OOo3.2.1 and OOo3.4.1.

Dear Milan Bouchet-Valat, 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!
