Description of problem: I'm trying chart two properties gas price and miles/gallon, all versus the date. The two gas prices share the same Y scaling. The third is scaled on the left side of the chart (correctly). The plotting of the points for the third is way off the chart (I added a zero entry to show a known point with a line linking). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnumeric-1.6.3-11.fc8 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. See attached gnumeric file 2. See properties for chart: Graph->Chart1->Y-Axis3 (Scale tab) 3. Data is in Graph->Chart1->PlotXY1->Mi/Gal (Data tab) Actual results: The zero point is plotted (orange triangle), following points are off the top of the chart. Expected results: All data points plotted Additional info:
Created attachment 194151 [details] Gnumeric file of gas prices and mi/gal plotted versus date
If I change the maximum scaling of the Y-Axis1 from 4 to 40, the scaling for the other two Y-Axises also changes and Y-Axis3 data points show up.
Hi, Sorry for the long silence. Rawhide now has gnumeric 1.8.1, can you please check if this bug still happens with gnumeric-1.8.1 ?
Yes, 1.8.1 still does it. In the file attached in Comment #1, it requires that the values in column G be divided by 10 before they show up in the graph. The values are being plotted by the first scale rather than their own.

Ok, Thanks for testing, I'm afraid I'm not familiar enough with gnumeric's code to fix this easily, and I expect someone who is familiar with the code to have an easy time at fixing this. So can you please file this bug upstream: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Gnumeric And then report the upstream ticket number here? Many thanks!
I've filed this myself upstream now, feel free to add yourself to the CC: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=526112
FYI: Upstream says this is not a bug, but you are using the charting component the wrong way causing your issues, they've attached a corrected file which does behave as you want, see: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=526112
