TomW,

could you just give me an idea about how exactly you deleted the objects? I am at my wits' end after having tried the obvious ways. Copying the whole chart into an empty Impress file does not change anything.

Is there any chance of getting the issue fixed so that
(a) the problem does not arise in the first place or
(b) (context) menus allow orderly deletion?

Kurt.

I did not have much difficulty removing the extra Title objects. I made a number of new slides with the chart pasted into it and experimented. A couple of times I had some objects that had "hwinfo" show up in the chart, but they could be deleted. I then experimented with a new chart in Calc and found that charts do not like to have similiar objects pasted into it. i.e Only one Title object per chart. Chart does not recognize the foreign objects for what they are. I copied the axis title objects and pasted them into the chart with the same results that you had. The Legend box and Data Series mis-behaved, also.

It would appear that the only way to copy titles from one chart to another is to open the Title Dialog and copy the information from the Title field of the first chart and paste it into the Title field of the second chart.

I just entered edit mode for the slide, selected the foreign objects, and deleted them. I did this in OOo2.3.1 and OOo-dev 2.4.0 (OOo-Dev_OOH680_m2_Win32Intel(an older dev release)). I did notice some rendering differences of the foreign objects between the two versions after entering then existing the edit mode. FYI: This mailing list is nearly all volunteers, as I am, so whether this gets fixed is unknown. The best way to see if it can be fixed is to file a bug report for the issue at http://qa.openoffice.org/issue_handling/pre_submission.html (They do ask that you check the Issue database for any prior entries.)
