Description Vilius Normantas 2016-12-05 10:36:21 UTC 
Options to add major and minor grid to X axis are missing from "Add" menu in the chart editor.

To reproduce: 
  1. Create a new chart of Line type from a column with some numbers
  2. Double-click the chart to open "Customise Chart" window
  3. Select "X-Axis1" from the list
  4. Click "Add"
  -- Elements "MajorGrid to X-Axis1" and "MinorGrid to X-Axis1" are not displayed.

Both grids works fine on Y axis.
Also, x-axis grids are appear ok on previously created charts.


(Btw, I was unable to make a screenshot while the "Add" menu was expanded, which probably is another bug, but I'm too lazy to report it)

This is not a bug. For column plots, the X-axis is discrete and no grid can be added to discrete axes.

But it used to work. I have some older charts with grids on x-axes. I'm just unable to create new ones.

OK you are right, it's my bad. I'll fix.
Comment 4 Jean Bréfort 2016-12-05 11:55:04 UTC 
This problem has been fixed in our software repository. The fix will go into the next software release. Once that release is available, you may want to check for a software upgrade provided by your Linux distribution.
