Re: [libreoffice-users] Macro Problem: Extending a Chart's X-axis
Hi :) Could you cheat? Could the data-range that gives you 1, 2, 3, 4 be extended and then edit the chart to pick-up the additional values? I don't think you would need corresponding Y values. Hopefully avoiding needing a macro might simplify things.

[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?
