->enmane: What do you think will you achieve by your rant here? Of course we
know the difference between regression analysis and error bars. If would take a
look at the product you are talking about you would see that these are different
things and that they are, apart from some missing features (e.g. this one), the
same as in MS Excel.

I won't explain why we haven't implemented this feature as I think I have done
this often enough. We can start new features only when the basis for this has
been done, so you have to be patient. Ranting doesn't help. Helping in
development would. We are two people re-implementing the chart. So far in all
this years we just got one developer who just started some small 
implementations.

So may be I am allowed to rant, too. Why do you guys think when you get a
software for FREE and do NOTHING for it apart from ranting, that we should
listen to you. We will implement this feature, when we finished chart2 and have
the time for it. Period.

So, if anybody has some constructive advice, a specification for how to
implement this feature, you are welcome to help. If you think this issue is
important, you can vote for it, but as you can see a high vote count does not
mean that this is implemented immediately, because in the current chart
implementation it is impossible to implement this feature, so we all have to
wait until the re-implementation is finished before we can care about this 
issue.

And if you think we are stupid then either tell us what we misunderstood or shut
up, as this kind of rant doesn't help anybody. (It just takes time again to
write this comment, that could have been used for doing real work)

And what do you mean by "what we are looking for"? I think the summary is very
clear: this issue is about "Select 'Range' for error bars" and nothing else.
