Hi Ady,
Your latest in comment #8 is essentially correct.

Is it a BUG: yes in that what appears to be correct data does not produce the
logical result.

It is also, to some extent a feature enhancement requirement: In that time
formatting is so variable,one needs to specify both an input and output format
- possibly also with a test to translate the applied format on the source data.

It does also reflect a loophole in the on line documentation for this aspect of
calc: On line searches shows numerous threads across different sites with users
having trouble with the time format - one even including "resort to
windows/excel as this is not possible with calc" or to that effect.


As regarding the steps to reproduce, I have detailed those above, repeated
herein, and also included the sample file demonstrating the erroneous result.
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Generate two columns of data, Col A is 00:00:00 to 23:45:00 in 15 minute
intervals, format as time.

2. Column B is numerical data, 1 ..96, or constant with a few different points
for calibration.

3.Select Both columns, and then Insert>Chart>x-y scatter chart, finish.

I am also frustrated to a certain extent in selecting the format axis option
when the chart area is selected. There seem to be diverse selection modes with
different menu options that are exclusive. If charts get an overhaul then I
feel that this could be improved too.
