I use Calc a lot for various simulation tasks, and with the installation of F17, I have had numerous new spreadsheets behave very badly with any graph I put in them. The hard to believe part is that older spreadsheets, created with F15 and before all work well. I have basically held off on some new work because this is too difficult to resolve. Moreover, if I play with various things from time to time I will get it to run as before, but I cannot get a consistant setup that makes it so. I did submit a bugzilla earlier, but have not seen any response that showed a fix. Basically any new graph seems to completely refresh the screen and take a very long time, about 1 or 2 seconds for every cell used in the graph. If more information will help, ask and I will send what I can.
