So option a) could be to place a control for style selection on top likewise it's done for text styles. Drawback is that many properties are shown dependent on context, e.g. Line Style of grid lines, Line Style of bars and Line Style of the background. So what we can do here, is to clean up and show all together and rename and combine it properly. Option b) is to introduce a second deck for chart styles similar to the styles in Writer. Wouldn't be as prominent as it should be though the adoption to chart styles in Writer might be easier. Issue is that still not all chart properties are active in edit mode: for example the chart background color can be set to none and the overall chart property for area to something else (becomes active when not in edit mode). For simplicity I would suggest to go with option b) and have a new sidebar deck for chart styles including Fill Format Mode and New Style as known from Writer ignoring the non-edit-mode properties. To apply the style on creation we could introduce a fifth step in the chart wizard where the user can select the style. Supposed workflow for <a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_NEW " title="NEW - Providing chart layout and color palette presets" href="show_bug.cgi?id=90490">bug 90490</a> is to create a new style based on the current selection and modify it. Since we do not have a all-in-one edit dialog yet as requested in <a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_NEW " title="NEW - Creation of a Chart properties dialog" href="show_bug.cgi?id=90687">bug 90687</a> this wont work (for now).</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
