Dennis Hamilton commented on OFFICE-3358:
-----------------------------------------

I agree with Andreas, noting that in ODF 1.0/IS 26300/ODF 1.1 that the <chart:title> table:cell-range attribute is required to be of type cellAddress, not type cellRangeAddressList.

It is not clear that it is meaningful to have made that change in ODF 1.2 without saying how the text is to be derived in the case where there is more than one cell referenced.  I'm also not sure what is taken as the text when cells have data types other than string and there may be formulas involved.  I assume it is the <text:p> cell content regardless, but not sure what the interaction with recalculation is expected to be.  It is also not clear what the concatenation of those will produce or whether separating space is expected, etc.

It looks to me like the safe course is to continue to live with the ODF 1.1 provision, even though table:cell-range is not the best name for the attribute in this case.

> In 11.2.1 <chart:title> we have:
> "The text of a title is specified by a child <text:p> element or a table:cell-range attribute. If a
> child <text:p> element and a table:cell-range attribute are both present, the text specified
> by the table:cell-range attribute is used as the title. "
> The last sentence is surely not quite right and should be:
> "...,the text contained in the cell specified
> by the table:cell-range attribute is used as the title"
> or something like that.
> Moreover:
> "By default, the content of a child <text:p> element is displayed as the title."
> What does "by default" mean here? If there is no child <text:p> element nor a table:cell-range attribute then there cannot be any title obtained from such a child element.
> Finally,
> in ODF 1.1 the attribute was called  table:cell-address, are we really changing that to table:cell-range? SInce table cell range can contain a list of cell address ranges, how is the title derived from such a list?
