Kudos on the release of version 4.2.0.4, which my Linux Mint PPA kindly installed on my main box yesterday. My first impression is hugely positive....
Reading more or less contemporaneously a *Nature Methods* editorial entitled *Kick the Bar Chart Habit* ( http://www.nature.com/nmeth/journal/v11/n2/full/nmeth.2837.html?WT.ec_id=NMETH-201402), I was struck by the following sentence : «This is often a box plot, but software packages such as Excel do not provide this plotting option». My question is - would it be difficult to provide such an option in Calc ? LibreOffice is often accused of simply attempting to catch up to MS Office ; perhaps including a feature like the forenamed could help to change minds and to put it on quite a few computers used in writing scientific articles ? ... (The editorial points to a web tool ( http://www.nature.com/nmeth/journal/v11/n2/full/nmeth.2811.html?WT.ec_id=NMETH-201402) for creating box plots, but I'm certain many users would love to have the option to keep the machinery on their own computer....)
