Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 110122
Copying a chart while in Edit mode appears to be blank (only copies chart area)

I suppose you could argue that this is not a bug, but it's a serious usability issue. 1) Create a new chart in Calc. 2) Double-click on it to edit something. 3) While still editing the chart, right-click on a blank area 4) Copy (right-click menu or CTRL+C) 5) Paste somewhere. 6) Observe that only the "Chart Area" (usually blank) is pasted. At first I thought Calc's copy feature was broken. It took me several tries to figure out what was actually happening. I don't think a non-technical user would ever figure this out. I can think of no use case for copying the chart area, but this behavior has disrupted my work repeatedly.
