Public bug reported:
As suggested in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/577658 I am
creating a new bug report for the issue.
I've attached a sample document with a contrived example (changing the
formatting should fix the issue in this case). To see the error:
1. Double click on the graph
2. Right click on the y-axis > Format Axis
3. Select the Scale tab
4. Uncheck Automatic for any of the values and try enter a number (You must
change the value).
5. You will see an error message stating that numbers are required.
These are the steps I used to create the sample spreadsheet:
1. Create new spreadsheet
2. In column A write the numbers 1 to 5 on rows 1 to 5.
3. In column B write the numbers 1 to 5 on rows 1 to 5.
4. Select all the numbers > Format > Cells.
5. In the Numbers tab select "Text" under the list of Categories.
6. Click OK.
7. Click the chart button (with the numbers still selected)
8. Select an XY scatter graph (I've tested with "points-only" and "points with
lines")
9. Click Finish. You now have a graph that gives the error message when trying
to change the scale.
Expected Behaviour:
The widget should accept the new values as numbers regardless of the formatting
of the chart data.
While the examples I've provided for reproducing the error are
contrived, I am seeing this issue in another document where changing the
formatting of the graph data is not possible/is not a workaround.
