About The Chart Legend

The Legend is designed to help your audience understand the meaning of the colors and shapes in your OnePager chart. The contents of the Legend are determined when the chart is created or updated. The Legend's title and the text names of Legend items can be edited in the Chart Editor. You can use the Legend to edit the colors, shape and other properties of task bar/milestone symbols in the chart. The Legend can be displayed in the chart or hidden. The Legend can be automatically or manually positioned in the graph or in the document area and can be visible or hidden in multi-page output media. The Conditional Formatting Rules capability changes the Legend based on the results of conditional formatting rule application.

Sample Legend

A typical chart Legend looks like this:

The Template Properties and Chart Properties Form's Legend Tabs

Legend global setting options are provided in the Template Properties form's Legend tab. Since the Chart Properties form's Legend tab is identical to the Legend tab in the Template Properties form, we recommend using the article links below to find detailed information on the controls in both forms.
