He's refering to a problem in older version of goffice that would look for the chart icons in the wrong place. Charts could imported, but the guru was broken. Your installation of 1.7.11 fixed that. > What I can't see how to do is create a chart as a sheet - is that what > you are trying to do? Or was it a different type of chart. That is still not properly supported. We have a cheesy hack to import them from xls as empty worksheets with no grids, but that is ugly. > > That is certainly the major problem.

Unfortunately that has broken other things .... but we're moving forward. > Okay - this is still broken - when I change from the default to A4, and > click OK - crash, also if I click on page preview - crash.

That's what happens when I manually prune a full build. _______________________________________________ gnumeric-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnumeric-list
