example of chart copying
When copying a range of cells, objects within that range - such as charts - are
copied as well. In Windows, this copies not just LibreOffice data but also
bitmap data which can be pasted in most graphics programs.
This is useful mostly when wanting to quickly copy/paste overlapping charts, as
the standard 'Export as Image...' only applies to a single chart, and
alternative means (screenshots, printing to a bitmap printer, etc.) are
cumbersome as well and have their own issues (e.g. copying a selected chart
directly copies it without any anti-aliasing).
Unfortunately, something appears to have broken here recently. Repro steps:
1. Create a simple table, e.g.
Thing | Amount
A | 1
B | 2
C | 3
D | 4
2. Create a chart for that table. A pie chart will do.
This should appear as a standard pie chart with green, yellow, orange and blue
sections.
3. select the cells that contain the chart.
4. copy the selection to clipboard
5. paste into a graphics program
The pie chart itself is not visible, while the legend shows completely
different colors (irfanview) or the correct colors (mspaint - but still no
actual chart), or fails to paste entirely (GIMP).
Example image attached.
Potentially related: Bug 60443, Bug 61405 - though those deal in part with
pasting into LibreOffice documents.
