There appear to be two choices in doing bulk changes to your charts:


Surrender or Death?

One: Use Star Basic to manipulate the settings.

I think that OOo macros can be in Python as well, I will have to look
into that. This seems to be the "Surrender" option...

Two: Modify the chart xml file within the ods file.  Oasis has some
literature on creating odf files from code, so I would assume one could also
modify the the file data with code.

And this is the "Death" option!

But both offer a life after!

Although extra effort is needed to master the tasks, once mastered they offer a great deal of flexibility in manipulating the data and files. And python would be my choice in approaching it on several levels.
