Bug ID: 121701
Issue Type: DEFECT
Summary: x-axis labelled randomly instead of using data
provided in spreadsheet
Classification: Application
Product: chart
Version: AOO 3.4.1
Hardware: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: major
Priority: P3

I want to do something extremely simple: create a chart based on 2 columns:
dates + corresponding values. I have over 2 years of data though not all days
are present. I want the dates to appear on the x-axis, but not all days,
because then it becomes messy.
The most straightforward and easy thing to do for calc would be to do this
right straight away without any interference from me. I.e.: use date from the
indicated column as label, if too much then leave some out at equal intervals.
Unfortunately, someone has spent quite some effort to avoid this.
So what does calc do? depending on settings:
- randomly pick very few days to display. Not starting with the first, nor
finishing with the last, and no regular intervals.
- completely ignore the dates, and just label the number of the cells, although
calc has been specifically told to use the content of the column as x-axis.
I suppose this must have been working at some point in time, so please! revert
it back to when it actually worked!
