Bug ID: 104249
Summary: Pie charts created in Writer - data labels format
settings reset upon opening a saved and closed .docx
file
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 5.1.6.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-***@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: ***@gmail.com

Description:
I'm working on page 26 of a document that will most likely surpass 50 pages.

I format data labels for the pie charts, save the settings, then at some point
close the .docx file after a day's work. Every time I open the saved document
to progress further, I need to reformat every pie chart because the data labels
have been reset and have defaulted to original settings.

Disappointed that my formatting changes have been reset, I have to reformat the
pie charts every time I open the .docx file to progress further. I have to
right click and click on "Format Data Labels."
Then click on the "Font" tab to click on "Bold" for a Typeface that has been
reset to "Regular."

In the same data label formatting window, I need to click on the "Font Effects"
tab to select the different "Font Color" I specified from the default setting
of "Black."

Thirdly, in the same data label formatting window, I need to click on the "Data
Labels" tab, click on "Percentage format..." to uncheck "Source format" so that
I can select the percentage format to be whole numbers ("-13%" is the example
given) instead of going by the default percentage format with two decimals
spaces after ("-12.95%" is the example given).

I save the settings, work on the file some more, then close it after a
satisfying day's work -- only to find upon reopening the file that the data
labels on the pie charts have reverted to original settings and I have to go in
there again.

To say that this is exasperating is an understatement, as I have been working
on this document for the past two weeks, adding to it on a more or less daily
basis.

I hope you can come up with a fix for this bug in time for me to complete this
report.

Actual Results:
Data label formatting of pie charts reset to original settings, even after
formatting in the .docx file has been saved. Upon opening the .docx file, I
have to go in there every time to reformat the data labels to the pie charts.

Expected Results:
I would expect that after I have saved the settings that upon reopening the
.docx file I would be able to see that the formatting of the data labels for
the pie charts would remain saved.


Reproducible: Always

User Profile Reset: No

This is how the default setting for the data labels in the pie chart looks like
when I reopen the file.

Made a test document, where I inserted data labels, formatted the labels to be
bold and white and show percentage without two decimals

After saving the document as a .docx, I reopened the file and sure enough
everything is back to the default format of black font, regular (not bold)
text, and the percentages were showing with two decimal places. Although my
data was saved, none of my formatting prior to saving the document was saved.

--- Comment #6 from QA Administrators <qa-***@libreoffice.org> ---
** Please read this message in its entirety before responding **

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today,
LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed
bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this
bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the
details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in
getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

Test to see if the bug is still present with the latest version of LibreOffice
from https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the information
from Help - About LibreOffice.

If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to
RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a comment that includes the information from Help
- About LibreOffice.

Please DO NOT

Update the version field
Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular
meaning that is not
appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a
REGRESSION. To do so:
1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your
bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3) from
http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug
3. Leave a comment with your results.
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to 'inherited from OOo';
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add 'regression' to keyword


Feel free to come ask questions or to say hello in our QA chat:
https://kiwiirc.com/nextclient/irc.freenode.net/#libreoffice-qa

Thank you for helping us make LibreOffice even better for everyone!

Warm Regards,
QA Team

The example file saved as docx from LO 6.3 master

As far as I see, the docx export contains all of the above data series font
formatting.

Let's say WFM, maybe this could be set as a duplicate for bug #121279 too.
