Subject: Re: [libreoffice-users] Macro Problem: Extending a Chart's X-axis


Tom,

I think the data I need might possibly be accessed according to this statement in the Developer 
Guide:

The data of a chart is acquired from the com.sun.star.chart.XChartDocument interface of the chart 
document model using the method com.sun.star.chart.XChartDocument:getData(). The current 
implementation of OpenOffice.org charts provides a com.sun.star.chart.XChartDataArray interface, 
derived from com.sun.star.chart.XChartData and supports the service 
com.sun.star.chart.ChartDataArray. 

However, if I write

Dim Doc As Object
Dim chartData As Object
Doc = ThisComponent
chartData = com.sun.star.chart.XChartDocument:getData()

I get

Property or method not found: GetData

Same with chartData = com.sun.star.chart.XChartDocument.getData(). "chartData = 
com.sun.star.chart.ChartDataArray" runs, but I'm not sure how to retrieve the results. Can you 
give me any guidance?

Thanks again,

Jonathan

Hi :)
Could you cheat?  Could the data-range that gives you 1, 2, 3, 4 be extended and then edit the 
chart to pick-up the additional values?  I don't think you would need corresponding Y values.  
Hopefully avoiding needing a macro might simplify things.  
Regards from
Tom :)

Subject: [libreoffice-users] Macro Problem: Extending a Chart's X-axis


I don't know if this is the right list to query, but I'm having trouble writing a simple Basic 
macro to extend a chart's X-axis. The bottom of the chart starts off looking like this:

|           |
|-----------|
1   2   3   4

My macro is:

Sub Main
Dim Doc As Object 
Dim Charts As Object 
Dim Chart as Object 
Doc = ThisComponent
Charts = Doc.Sheets(0).Charts 
Chart = Charts.getByIndex(0).EmbeddedObject
Chart.Diagram.XAxis.Max = Chart.Diagram.XAxis.Max + 4
End Sub

and in the end, I want the bottom of the chart to be:

|             |
|-------------|
1 2 3
 4 5 6 7 8

Instead, I get

|           |
|-----------|
1234

I'm sure the problem has something to do with the fact that the Format > Data Ranges... menu 
item's content remains unchanged, i.e., stays

$Sheet1.$A$1:$A$5

instead of changing to

$Sheet1.$A$1:$A$9

which gives the chart the appearance I want. Any ideas re modules, services, methods to get/set 
the chart's data range? TIA,

Jonathan
