Introduction to the Chart Legend in OnePager
Illustrations used in this article are from OnePager Pro using data from Microsoft Project but the features, function, controls, and manual edits apply equally to other OnePager editions that import from data sources like Microsoft Excel, Smartsheet, Oracle Primavera P6, Project for the Web, Planisware Enterprise, Asana, and Wrike.
This series of articles describes OnePager’s Chart Legend features.
About The Chart Legend
The Legend is designed to help your audience understand the meaning of the colors, shapes, and fill patterns in your OnePager chart. The contents of the Legend are determined when the chart is created or updated. The Legend first collects legend items of different colors, both task bars and milestone symbols. Next, the Legend collects task bars/milestone symbols that are different shapes. Finally, the Legend collects task bars/milestone symbols that have different fill patterns. Changes made to task bars/milestone symbols in terms of color, shape, and/or fill pattern are automatically updated in the Legend if it is shown in the chart.
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:

Changing the fill pattern, for example, either by changing a Gradient or by changing to a Hash Fill Patterns for a task bar/milestone symbol typically adds an entry into the legend as shown in the example below;

Legend global setting options are provided in the Template Properties form's Legend tab. The Chart Properties form's Legend tab is identical to the Legend tab in the Template Properties form.
The Legend's Context Menu
When editing the chart, some common edits can be made by right clicking the Legend and using the controls in legend right-click context menu as shown here:
