Description Unknown 2003-10-11 20:45:38 UTC 
Why would it not be possible to modify data sets that are based upon existing 
charts.  This is practically the way in which all spreadsheet applictions have 
functioned since Lotus 123.  This seems really silly not to have included this 
capability.  Also creating charts that contain multiple data sets that are not 
adjacent seems to be impossible through the existing UI.  If it is possible 
then it is not readily apparent and help did not contain much information 
regarding its use.  I know that this capability exists in the code since 
imported spreadsheets will read non-adjacet data sets and will update 
accordingly to modified data points.

Hi Anthony,

where are major changes planed for OOo 2.0 regarding the Chart module.
Making it easier to use nonadjacent cells for the Chartdata is one
part of it.

For now just select the range you want to be charted. Let's say
A1:A10, C11:C20 and E3:E12. You only have to remember that the
leftmost selection is taken as values for the X-Axis.

Regarding the change of the Chart data area. just select the Chart
(green Handles) and open the context menu. Select Modify Data Area and
 that's it.

Frank
