problem with bar chart and 2nd Y axis

[famo]

hi,
if I have a bar chart with two bars and i assign one to the 2nd y axis, the bars overlay each other and no matter what i do (spacing, overlap settings), i cant get them to show side by side.
is this intend to be so or is it an bug?

ps: another buggy think, if you assign the data series back to primary y axis, the 2nd y axis doesn't vanish and i don't know how to remove it.

Hmm, I agree, it would be nice to have the option to plot multiple bars for each category. It really doesn't make sense to have them perfectly overlaid--that will never be what the user is after!

The only workaround I can see is to adjust the width of the bars and the two Y-axis scales to make the bars distinguishable.

This feature is coming with Chart in March with OOo 2.4: Chart2/Features2.4 [OOo wiki].

The feature has been integrated and appears in the current snapshots if you'd like to test it.
