https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=62925 --- Comment #40 from redwdc --- Just to add my 2 cents. 1) The current general layout for the "Chart Wizard" is fine, though it may need to be resized for any extra layouts and/or have tabs added. 2) It would be nice to be able use one line point style and/or select which of multiple point styles are used. This may require an extra tab or a popup or something like that. (To be very extravagant add custom graphics for line points.) 3) Be able to define which font/s is/are used. This should be on it's own tab. 4) Be able to re-open the "Chart Wizard" by the right click context menu on an existing chart. 5) Save chart layouts as templates. This could either be in the wizard or as on option on the right click context menu. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=62925 --- Comment #39 from Zak McKracken --- I'm quite interested in having styles for charts, as that could make LO a lot more efficient to work with. I'm usually quite busy generating plots, rather than discussing software, but I'm finding myself with a few weeks' time, so I'd be interested in helping out if/where I can. I've not programmed anything in C++ (but am reasonably seasoned in Python, including GUI programming, if that helps at all), and I've been using all sorts of graphing software in the past, from Excel annd openOffice 1.0 through Libreoffice 6, Paraview, Fieldview, Tecplot, Matplotlib, Gnuplot ... so I'd like to think I have some capacity to compare their implementations of formatting templates. I'm not sure where the process is at the moment, and if the below helps (if not, feel free to ignore), but I thought it might be useful to give some more examples of how this works in other software, both as an inspiration and maybe also as an indication of how useful a feature it can be. Tecplot is one of the biggest players in the scientific plotting market, so I think taking a look and learning from them is reasonable. And actually, I think it's fairly straightforward to improve on their approach, although it's reasonably good, in that it stores plots as "layout" files, which contain the formatting separate from the data (and can even have it in separate files), and allows replacing a layout but keeping the data, or replacing data and keeping the layout. Layouts are specified in some kind of scripting language (the same it used for user scripts), which can include formatting of non-existent elements. Although this is (sadly!) not officially supported, the default formatting choices are stored in a user-editable file and with a little trial & failure, a user can edit this to include their most frequent formatting choices. This used to be a huge time saver for me until the next version broke compatibility...). pros: * keep data, change layout * can be used to get good defaults * layout can have settings for all plot types and elements, independent of whether they're visible in a particular plot. So if you format a line plot, then switch to scatter, the line-plot formatting is still there. cons: * editing global defaults is tedious * layout choices are specific: Over-loading another layout changes only elements present when layout was specified (i.e. if there are 3 data series in the data but only 2 in the layout, the third will use global default style -- a layout can't specify "all plotted lines have thickness X", except in global defaults) Another example: Matplotlib, the core plotting library for Python. It has next to no GUI, and is used via Python code, but I like the principle it uses. In most cases when I used it (and having been confined to Python 2.0 with no time to read the docs properly), I always copied a bunch of formatting code around to get consistent looks for my plots (still a time saver vs. having to remember the arguments for plotting functions...), but in current implementation, style sheets are a blessing: https://matplotlib.org/3.2.0/gallery/style_sheets/style_sheets_reference.html They define all possible elements (or a subset of them), and allow visually consistent plots of all kinds without specifying the same formatting choices for all of them over and over again. There's a set of style sheets that comes with matplotlib, but the user can make and specify their own. This means that I can generate publication-ready plots much quicker, and if different forms of publication require different formatting, that's only one update to the style sheet, and re-running the script to generate the charts. Very little work, and no way to accidentally forget to change that one axis label... Pros: * ... everything. I think this is my favourite implementation of styles for plots. Matplotlib can control pretty much anything ever using them (as far as I have explored it so far). If someone made all matplotlib functionality available in a good GUI with saving/loading of graphs and data, that would be my favourite graphing software, by a long shot. Cons: * ...small nitpicks. I've written too much already. Feel free to contact me if you think I can make some useful contribution. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

The actual UI is a "piece of cake", much more important is to have a clean implementation and scope. Eg. styles should be created, modified, deleted but also saved, loaded and ideally shared per extension. And before this step you have to solve all the internal handling, which might be good enough for a nice summer. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

Thus, I will probably be implementing a very limited ui in sidebar deck offering only a selection list for styles to be chosen from. Sorry, but I asked this question only through my ignorance.

For the GUI part after reading the comments I see that the sidebar implementation is preferred of chart styles. Can I get some documentation regarding how sidebar in libreoffice works.

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=62925 --- Comment #28 from Gerry --- It's great to see some movement on the development of chart styles. Thanks in advance. If I look at different chart style implementations, e.g. Stata and Excel, chart styles can determine a number of different elements: * the color scheme (of results and text) or hatching scheme (of results) * the existence, color and thickness of borders (e.g. border lines around bars in a bar chart) * the background color * the existence borders around the chart area and legend * the existence, position and text size/font of a legend * the existence, position and text size/font of a title and or subtitle * the existence, position and text size/font of notes below a chart Of course, one probably cannot implement all these elements at the beginning, but please keep in mind that chart styles can comprise a number of different elements.

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=62925 --- Comment #27 from Heiko Tietze --- Created attachment 141754 --> https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=141754&action=edit Mockup for chart style We have access to properties from the sidebar. So option a) could be to place a control for style selection on top likewise it's done for text styles. Drawback is that many properties are shown dependent on context, e.g. Line Style of grid lines, Line Style of bars and Line Style of the background. So what we can do here, is to clean up and show all together and rename and combine it properly. Option b) is to introduce a second deck for chart styles similar to the styles in Writer. Wouldn't be as prominent as it should be though the adoption to chart styles in Writer might be easier. Issue is that still not all chart properties are active in edit mode: for example the chart background color can be set to none and the overall chart property for area to something else (becomes active when not in edit mode). For simplicity I would suggest to go with option b) and have a new sidebar deck for chart styles including Fill Format Mode and New Style as known from Writer ignoring the non-edit-mode properties. To apply the style on creation we could introduce a fifth step in the chart wizard where the user can select the style. Supposed workflow for bug 90490 is to create a new style based on the current selection and modify it. Since we do not have a all-in-one edit dialog yet as requested in bug 90687 this wont work (for now). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=62925 --- Comment #9 from Robert Pogson --- I add my support for this request. I blog and do technical work using a lot of charts. For blogging, I create the charts and then embed them in my website as a fixed number of pixels. On a high-resolution screen, the image is often barely readable using the defaults for titles, axes-labels, legends and data-labels, so I have to adjust fonts repeatedly. It takes more time to manually format the chart than it does to gather the data for the spreadsheet and upload the image to the server. It is a major hit and I have to remember the font-sizes for several categories of items and font-faces, or articles with multiple charts look amateurish. It could be just one click to avoid a lot of work and errors. The newly added ability to export as SVG helps in quality but I still have to work with font-size on one end and pixels on the other... This is also an accessibility issue in that old eyes like mine need the larger fonts. It's not only about convenience/productivity. The whole idea of using XML in the file-format is to be able to separate style from content. Not using that philosophy for charts and hard-coding these in the software is something that should be fixed. Now that SVG is well supported, this would make LibreOffice nearly perfect for what I do. If we cannot do this with styling, please let us save and insert from templates. Saving the chart styling in a whole-document template doesn't work because the data-ranges then have to be edited and there might be a dozen of them. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

A style I am using very often instead of stacked column style to emphasis the gain for each step separately. This is also very often to be seen in chart created by consulting companies. Current creation requires additional data preparation and a lot of formating work; thus very time consuming. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

Now I - and I assume that there are many others waiting for this enhancement - can only wait to see if there is a great volunteer who will tackle the topic. This feature would - to the best of my knowledge - put Impress on the same and maybe even a bit better level than PowerPoint.

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=62925 --- Comment #5 from Francisco --- I was vivisecting an ODS file, trying to see how does LibO handle styles for charts, since it's supposed that using ODF, you're using styles even if don't want. Charts content, as for any object are stored inside dirs "Object #", where there are 3 files: meta.xml, content.xml and styles.xml. Interestingly, the file styles.xml doesn't store any style, but all styles defined for charts are stored in content.xml around "" It seems to be that this feature request will be more difficult to solve -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs

Well, in some way, it _is_ a duplicate of what I wanted to report in first place: it is a really slow task to edit format charts in Calc. What could we do? · Add chart styles · Add other customization options for the defaults presets of charts (not only colors) Then I realized that the problem was a pretty bigger, since not even textboxes drawn inside charts are editable through styles. Then I stated that charts need some improvement in general, though the implementation of styles is a real step fordward in this goal. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. ___ Libreoffice-bugs mailing list Libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-bugs
