Spreadsheet problems with .xls chart legends
Last modified: 2013-02-24 21:21:21 UTC
Problem arose when trying to view a .xls file created with MS Excel (Currently 2003 but also tried 2000) in Spreadsheet. Created a simple X-Y Scatter chart from some data on a spreadsheet. Then edited the text for the legend directly on the chart. By this I mean, right click chart -> Source data -> Series tab -> edited the 'name' field to modify the legend. I then saved and opened with Spreadsheet, it does not read the legend but simply reads out the column where the data is located. In this case the column of the 'Y' data.
