Hi FD, Did you base your patch on 3.17 sources or on current GitHub mirror?
Cloning a Chart in XSLF was not only a matter of cloning some XML hierarchy. Some magic was involved at the relationships level. Maybe with the introduction of the XDDF package some parts of the magic have been made available. I must confess I had the same motivation as yourself, but with Charts in slides. However I didn't have time and a project to explore the best way to do it also for Charts in XSSF and XWPF. Your code is welcome! Even better if you could open a pull request on https://github.com/apache/poi as it is easier for us to review and bring it to our machines and run local tests. Thanks for your collaboration!

Copying a chart from an existing model Excel file is needed in any real life reporting project. I've tinkered with the code and found a simple way to do it. I just needed access to 2 private variables in XSSFChart class. If I paste the test code could you implement the copy chart method somewhere in the library ?
