Description Frederic Parrenin 2003-11-02 17:58:51 UTC 
Open a spreadsheet.
Enter the following data:
0  1
   2
2  0

Plot them as an XY graph.
=> gnumeric plots in fact the following set:
0  1
2  2
2  0
i.e. gnumeric has invented a data that does not exist.

Is it a bug or a wanted feature ?
[Note: OO does not have this behaviour.]

Regards.    Frédéric

xl is just so consistent :-p

blank as X  or Y is a missing entry
string means use an index value for X
strings means use 0 for Y

fixed
