Hi everybody,

Tony just tested importing Excel files with the new chart. For that he
designed a few files with Excel 2000 representing all the kinds of
charts.

Here are the files :
-> http://fr.openoffice.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=634
-> http://fr.openoffice.org/files/documents/67/3771/Excel_2000.zip

the results from the tests :

1 - Secteur_3D.xls : the default gray background is not kept when importing in Calc

This has been disabled explicitly in the chart module. -> Ingrid?

Yes, this is the same as in the old chart. Pies and donuts do not have a floor or wall. Thus you cannot get a grey background there.


2 - Secteur_3D.xls : The title from Excel is lost

Indeed. I have fixed this right now. :-)


3 - Secteur_3D.xls : 3D charts "orientation" is not exactly the same.

Import and export of 3D orientation is not supported in the Excel filters. Will be implemented later.


Same problem as in the old chart: An option to reverse the orientation is missing (see Issue 37823http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=37823)

4 - Secteur_3D.xls : Borders from 3D charts are visible in Excel, in Calc there
are "dashed" ?

Seems to be a drawing problem. -> Ingrid


Yes, this is a rendering problem of the drawing engine...


5 - Radar.xls : « Radar » charts are different in Calc and Excel (ex : grid, labels position...)

Grid: different "automatic" behaviour between Excel and Calc (Excel filter sets "automatic main interval" flag only). Label position: The same, different behaviour, not a problem in the Excel filter.


Here the new chart is not worse than the old chart. Thus you might want to submit a regular issue (not starting the summary with 'new chart:').

6 - Radar.xls : Legend is on one line in Calc while being on 2 lines in Excel

Again, different behaviour. Stacking direction cannot be recognized from the Excel file.

Ah, this one is worse than in the old chart. Would you mind to submit an issue for this (starting the summary with 'new chart:'). Thanks a lot!

Where is point 7? :-)


8 - Nuage_Points.xls : clouds of points from Excel are not not imported correctly in Calc.

This is an XY chart without valid X values (the X values point to range A2:A7 which contains strings). Excel has an internal fall-back to the values 1, 2, 3, ... but Calc simply drops the data points. The source ranges themselves are imported correctly.

The same problem did exist already in the old chart. So it would be nice if you could submit an issue for that (without starting the summary with 'new chart:').

9 - Histogramme_3D.xls : view angle is slightly modified

See above, no support for 3D settings for the moment.


Please send more of this stuff, I will be happy to check and fix all problems in the Excel filters.

Yes, thanks a lot Tony for the thorough testing!
Ingrid
