double click the XY (Scatter), sorted by X values chart and hover the mouse icon over a data point, the pop up notes the correct X,Y value.

4) What happens instead is it does not. The pop-up is using the data values top to bottom, to display the data point values from left to right.

I don't see a plot in the attached document at all. Is it the right file?

[Kevet Duncombe (dunc-visi)]

Whoops, I forgot the plot. Here's an improved demo.

[Chris Cheney (ccheney)]

Thanks!

I verified this bug still occurs on official OpenOffice.org 3.0.0 so will be forwarding it to upstream.

Hi Christopher

I can confirm that using your explanation I can reproducible that problem. But if I build XY chart from scratch using your data it's not happen.

Could you confirm using LO 4.0.3.3 whether tooltips still show wrong info?

On pc Debian x86-64 with master sources updated yesterday, I could reproduce this.

If I create from the file attached a new graphic, I could reproduce too the problem.

[chris (ign-christian)]

You're right Julien, reproducible with "Sort by X values" checked with LO 4.3.1.1. Looks like I forgot checked that in previous testing :)

Anyway I don't understand the purpose of "Sort by X values" in XY chart. It doesn't make any difference in chart.

Thank you ign_christian for your feedback. Great (in a way) you could reproduce it too :)

Just some notes.
Searching "Sort by X Values" with keyId language gives this:
https://translations.documentfoundation.org/fr/translate/#search=CFYgL&sfields=source,target,notes
=> tp_ChartType.ui

http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/search?q=tp_ChartType.ui&project=core&defs=&refs=&path=&hist= gives:
- chart2/source/controller/dialogs/tp_PointGeometry.cxx
- chart2/source/controller/dialogs/tp_ChartType.cxx
From the second one, searching "sort" keyword gives mpCB_XValueSorting, itself linked to "bSortByXValues" member of ChartTypeParameter, see http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/chart2/source/controller/dialogs/ChartTypeDialogController.hxx#81

MassPing-UntouchedBug

[Ouyang-leyan (ouyang-leyan)]

The bug is still present in version: 7.1.0.0.alpha1+

I had a look, it is due to the "sort by X value" being done in the view part (in VDataSeries::doSortByXValues()) without updating the model data, while the tooltip text is generated by lcl_getDataPointValueText in ObjectNameProvider.cxx in the controller part, which has access to the model data, but not the view data and the VDataSeries correctly sorted.

Does it mean the sort should be done elsewhere and apply to the model data as well?

Good job! Would you be interested in proposing a patch?
Indeed, it seems you made most of the way for this since I suppose you:
- downloaded LO sources
- built it
- analyzed the code + found root cause
- began to think about a fix
So the only things to do would be:
- provide license statement (just an email on LO dev)
- create gerrit account
- submit a patch
If yes, here's a link to take a look:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/GetInvolved

[Ouyang-leyan (ouyang-leyan)]

I do have a Gerrit account and a license statement, but it seems you are missing one tiny little step, which is to actually write the correction. I haven't done it.

It is probably not very hard for someone familiar with the code, but I am not sure how to go about it, hence the question.

Indeed, I should have taken a look at git history, I would have seen https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=c1b96424b65aed2401a3e86d53a48cc12284de7c.

Setting priority back to normal, and changing the summary, as this does not affect only the tooltips.
As shown by duplicate reports:
- static data point labels are also wrong (bug 156237)
- linked data in cells does not match (bug 86706)

Hossein, is this in the realm of easyHack or not at all?
