Embedded chart data cannot be edited after saving with Aspose

Aspose.Slides Product Family
1

Embedded chart data in a PPTX file cannot be edited after the file is saved using Aspose. When a chart is embedded in a PPTX file, you can right-click on the chart and edit the data in an Excel-like spreadsheet. After the file is saved by Aspose, the data can no longer be edited and appears to be lost although the chart is still displayed.

I have a sample file that can be used to reproduce the issue, but I do not see how to attach the file

I am using .NET 4.6.1 with Aspose Slides 17.1.0.0 in a 32-bit application. The file was saved using my client’s application which also writes data to the custom properties. I will work on getting a sample project for you.
