[libreoffice-users] Help Block Automatic Changes in Chart Axis Scales
I have numerous charts in my spreadsheets in which the x-axis scale type needs to be Date. However, if I change the chart's range, the type automatically changes to Text. How can I prevent LO from doing this?

[libreoffice-users] Directory for Python Macros?
I’ve started learning to create Python macros for LibreOffice, but I need advice on where to put them. if I put them in /Applications/LibreOffice.app/Contents/Resources/Scripts/python (I'm using Mac OS X El Capitan, version 10.11.5, LibreOffice version 5.1.3.2, containing Python 3.5.0) they show up in the LibreOffice Macros section in the Python Macros dialogue. This works, but I would rather not insert them into the LibreOffice.app directory tree. Does anyone know what folder corresponds to the My Macros section in the Python Macros dialogue instead? -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

[libreoffice-users] Custom Bitmap for Chart Wall?
I'd like to fill the wall of my chart with a custom bitmap of my own creation. But when I double-click my chart, then click menu Format Chart Wall... Area tab Bitmap popup item Blank pattern, I can't edit this pattern, even though LibreOffice Help entry bitmaps;patterns seems to suggest that I should be able to. Any suggestions?

Re: [libreoffice-users] Custom Bitmap for Chart Wall?
Brian and Regina, Thank you both for your responses. Both methods worked (Regina's had the advantage of not needing a new document) but both also produced an unexpected (and undesired) blurring of the boundary between two colors: Any further suggestions how to produce a sharp boundary?

Your new bitmap will now be available in Calc, but you may have to close and reopen your spreadsheet document before it appears. I trust this helps.

Area tab Bitmap popup item Blank pattern, I can't edit this pattern, even though LibreOffice Help entry bitmaps;patterns seems to suggest that I should be able to. Any suggestions? Try this: 1. In chart editing mode draw a rectangle into the chart. If the drawing toolbar is not visible, you can activate it via View - Toolbars. 2. From the context menu of the rectangle choose the item 'area'. 3. On the dialog page 'Bitmaps' click on 'import' and select the picture of your choice or use the pattern editor to make some simple dot-bitmap. 4. If you want this bitmap for further documents, you have to save the bitmap list. 5. Close the dialog. 6. Delete the rectangle. Now you should have your own bitmap in the bitmap list.

[libreoffice-users] Macro Problem: Extending a Chart's X-axis
I don't know if this is the right list to query, but I'm having trouble writing a simple Basic macro to extend a chart's X-axis. The bottom of the chart starts off looking like this: | | |---| 1 2 3 4 My macro is: Sub Main Dim Doc As Object Dim Charts As Object Dim Chart as Object Doc = ThisComponent Charts = Doc.Sheets(0).Charts Chart = Charts.getByIndex(0).EmbeddedObject Chart.Diagram.XAxis.Max = Chart.Diagram.XAxis.Max + 4 End Sub and in the end, I want the bottom of the chart to be: | | |-| 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Instead, I get | | |---| 1234 I'm sure the problem has something to do with the fact that the Format Data Ranges... menu item's content remains unchanged, i.e., stays $Sheet1.$A$1:$A$5 instead of changing to $Sheet1.$A$1:$A$9 which gives the chart the appearance I want. Any ideas re modules, services, methods to get/set the chart's data range?

[libreoffice-users] Restore Separate Navigator Window?
My document's Navigator has somehow gone from being its own window to a pane in the main document. I need the first behavior, because I'm writing a script based on a separate Navigator window. Can anyone tell me how to restore it? Using LibreOffice 3.4.1, MacOS X 10.4.11.

Re: [libreoffice-users] Restore Separate Navigator Window?
Tom: your grab-and-drag solution worked. Brian: So did your control-doubleclick toggle, except for MacOS X I had to use command (Apple-key)-doubleclick instead.

I think this depends a bit on your operating system, and I don't have MacOS here to try. But try either of these techniques: o Hold down the Ctrl key and double-click on an empty grey area of the window. That's not on the title bar or on a button, but somewhere on the grey area around the buttons and around the main panel - between the buttons or around the edge. o With focus on the Navigator window, press Ctrl+Shift+F10. Both these techniques should toggle the window between floating and docked. I trust this helps.
