A particularly bad case, where intervals switch multiple times (90.46 KB, image/png)

Description Luke Hutchison 2007-03-01 22:59:52 UTC 
When resizing a chart, certain widths cause non-uniform labeling of the X axis.  For example, the interval may be 2 (0, 2, 4, ...) and then switch to 3 (8, 10, 13, 16, 19, ...).  The interval should always be consistent.  Probably the max interval over the entire axis should be calculated and used, rather than a local interval based on what is needed to fit the current label.

Ugh.  Yeah, that is not pretty.

I doubt the x axis is special here, btw.

That's a known bug, and there's nothing easy we can do in order to fix it, as long as we calculate the graph object layout in the graph view.

The current situation is better than what we have a few weeks ago: now what you see in the graph guru should be the same as what you obtain in gnumeric sheet view, whatever the zoom is.

This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.
