            Bug ID: 125753
           Summary: No indication that secondary X axis just duplicates
                    primary X axis
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Chart
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

data for testing

A secondary axis is usually assumed to show different categories or scales and
to have data aligned to it.

In Chart, it is possible to display a secondary X-axis. However, it does not
appear possible for it to have a different scale or to align data to it. 

There is no indication in the program that it does not work and documentation
assumes that it works as expected. 

To reproduce:

1. Select data (sample data attached)
2. Go to Insert > Chart to open Chart Wizard
3. Click finish to close Chart Wizard
4. In edit mode, go to Insert > Axes
5. In the Axes dialog, click to select Secondary X-Axis

What is expected:
If data cannot be aligned to the secondary X-axis, I would expect an indication
that choosing the option just duplicates the primary X-axis.

What happens instead:
There is no indication that the secondary X-axis does not work as expected.

Perhaps I am wrong and the secondary X-axis can work as expected. I have found
no evidence of that but would be happy to be corrected (and shown how it can
work).
