The attached file was generated with Excel 2007 and there saved in "Excel 97-2003" format. The attached pictures show, how the chart lookes in Excel. Open the file in OOoSCRm240. The color information is lost, and default blue8 is used.

Created attachment 50724 [details] Screenshot
problem found, will be fixed in 2.4
fixed in SRC680/dr58 (OOo 2.4) Excel 2007 writes out different fill attributes, including transparency. Import/export of solid transparency for all objects has been implemented now (chart areas, titles, data points etc). Note that even Excel 2003 is able to display transparent objects in charts.
attaching a modified version of this document, containing transparent data points
Created attachment 50858 [details] test doc with transparence
back to QA
verified in internal version cws_dr58
God do I hope cws_dr58 would not miss 2.4!!
verified at master version OOo 3.1 - color problem is fixed but the chart proportion are being changed in the import process
color problem is fixed on OOo310m07 - can be closed
