Does anybody know Office-independent .NET components supporting creation/updating full-fledged office open xml charts from different types of documents (PowerPoint preferred) in a couple of lines of code.

An example from MSDN How to: Insert a Chart into a Spreadsheet Document does it in a difficult way (as far as I can understand I need to create all those child objects like axes explicitly), though many components reading/writing Excel 2007 charts allow creation of charts in a few lines of code, implicity creating child objects (axes, labels, tick marks, etc).

Aspose.Slides.Pptx doesn't seem to provide a deep-chart edition as well (like changing chart type, etc)

Though PowerPoint is preferred, solutions and ideas for other Office documents (like Word and Excel) which could be ported to PowerPoint are welcomed as well.
