Description:
Hello,

A thing I like about Google Docs that I could not do yet in LibreOffice is
connecting the Legend to the Chart like in this pie chart:

It's much easier to understand/read the chart in that way.

Also, it is already difficult for us to read charts with a lot of entries, and
I have to worry if color blind people will be able to read it.

I know we can also use gradients and patterns to help readability, but those
lines are much more readable in my opinion.

But I would also like a similar feature for Area and Line charts. (Google Docs
also does not have for those, only for pie charts)

Like for this example the chart is very difficult to read and associate the
data and the fields:

The closest alternative (workaround) I got is by right clicking in the area >
"Insert Data Labels", then "Format Data Label" > unchecking "Value as number"
and checking "Series name". It inserts the label, but it gets repeated for each
data entry.

Some example on how it could be:
