No, the Pivot Table and linked Pivot Chart must be on separate tabs with the
data still linked to the Pivot Table.

This is a requirement in an assignment for a university course "IDM 1020 Data
Software for Business" that I am taking for credit.

It doesn't say anywhere in the course description that this course is mostly
about Excel. I dared to do every assignment in LO-Calc but was unsuccessful
with the Pivot Charts as described in this bug. To finish the assignment I had
to load my .xlsx file into Excel at the school lab and redo that part of the
assignment.

[Off-topic]

I am most certainly the first person ever taking this course to attempt to do
any of it with LO-Calc (or Linux), especially considering that this course is
aimed at people who know little to nothing about spreadsheets. Thankfully I did
learn about some functions which I have never used in 30+ years of spreadsheet
use.

The instructor knew about LO-Calc but was surprised that it implements
Conditional Formatting so well. Microsoft almost pwns this city.

PS I did not attempt the Word formatting assignment with LO-Writer since I had
an unpleasant result a few weeks ago in a different course with MarkDown
interpretation while pasting Python source code into a .docx file prepared by
the instructor.
