--- Comment #10 from Alexander Kriegisch <alexan...@kriegisch.name> --- I was waiting for this feature for around 15 years. This was the main knock-out criterion for me to not use OpenOffice and later LibreOffice, because I heavily rely on named ranges in Excel for auto-updating charts. So I was excited to see that this is suppoed to be fixed now. I tried to import some of my old Excel XLS files and was disappointed to see no effect whatsoever. Then I inspected the Git commit and saw that the change seems to affect only XSLX import. My Microsoft 365 subscription lately having expired, I had to ask a friend to convert the files to XSLX for me. I re-tested, and I can see the charts now. Question: Was XLS import ignored on purpose or is that format somehow not being supported first-class anymore? Issues: If I change data in the table, the diagram is never updated. If I want to edit the chart's data ranges, I get an error message asking me if I want to create new ones because the existing ones are based on an internal table (sorry, the message is in German on my system). >From my perspective, this feature is not fully implemented yet. The idea was to get support for dynamic data ranges, not a static snapshot copy of data. If I want static charts, I do not need dynamic named ranges in the first place. I suggest to reopen the issue. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
