Hi Regina, I don't have much experience with 3D graphics, but I'm an experienced developer. I'm currently building in Cygwin but debugging in Visual Studio 2022.
I'm looking at some test cases that highlight differences between how OOXML documents are rendered in LibreOffice vs Office. So far the differences in text rendering between Writer and Word seem to be mostly just differences and not bugs, but the lack of support for 3D charts is a big difference. Since no one is working on those 3D elements, I guess I'll get started on them when I finish what I'm doing now. It looks like I can't run the LibreOffice unit tests from Visual Studio, but I can set up an Ubuntu system when I get to that point.

And if so, would you > welcome help? I think, currently no one works on 3D topics. Do you have previous knowledge of 3D? Have you already done an easy hack to familiarize yourself with the tools for developing in LibreOffice core? Your mail title says "3D chart". It there a special problem you want to solve?
