Libreoffice help
Hey everyone, so I'm working on degoogle/demicrosofting and I have recently moved to libreoffice. But the graphing is just not super ideal, for me. Does anyone have any walkthroughs, tutorials, tips etc?

Are you referring to the excel-type functions? Or something else?
I've had troubles with getting the excel-type functions to allow a single graph to have multiple data series, changing bounds, "simple" things like that. Also importing those graphs into the pdf-viewing/editing software tends to do wonky things to my formatting.
Found this: Libre Tuts
I'm not an expert at all, hopefully that helps, he's got a fair bit of stuff in it.
Thank you, hopefully between this and the official libreoffice help page, I can figure out how to get my graphs looking neater and highlighting the info I'm looking for.
People will be able to help you better if you describe your specific problem. "Not super ideal" and "does anyone have tutorials" are very vague descriptions.
Also there are specialized communities for LibreOffice at ![email protected] and ![email protected] as well as support forums for it elsewhere, maybe try asking there too.
Fair enough, my specific examples are as simple as adding multiple data series to a single graph, using the calculations in cells as you would on excel. I really had a hard time getting any logarithm to function, I would have to use a calculator and input the values. It was just a little annoying but not a problem, per say. The other motive of this post was to check activity on where to find libreoffice support on lemmy. I'm in college and this upcoming term sounds very graph heavy.
