Description Frederic Parrenin 2006-06-15 06:21:09 UTC
- open the .xls file in XL
=> the graph shows a series with blue symbols
- open it in gnumeric
=> the series does not appear, because the symbols are not defined

Comment 3 Jean Bréfort 2006-06-15 09:53:53 UTC
about the file contents, the scatter plot has no marker, no line as default, and the series has no style field (except 3dbarshape), so default is assumed and nothing is displayed.
Comment 4 Frederic Parrenin 2006-06-15 10:46:41 UTC
OK, so it seems default in XL is not the same as default in gnumeric?
Comment 5 Jean Bréfort 2006-06-15 12:06:50 UTC
Frédéric, it looks like #319727.
Comment 6 Frederic Parrenin 2006-06-15 12:37:23 UTC
Oups, sorry, I did not realize it was the same.
Please mark it as a dup then.
I don't know what is the best solution here, but it seems to me importing .xls files as XL does is a requirement.
Comment 7 Jean Bréfort 2006-06-15 15:38:30 UTC
no more crash after updating libgsf :)
