Hi,

I am struggling to work out the best way to format some Legends. I have set-up the following:

1. 7 stacking charts and I have used NGuidleine to align them.

2. I would like the Legends for each chart to be side-by-side with the relevant chart.

3. The top chart will have an unknown number of items in the legend (in the attached picture it has 11). This is why I have set a fixed row size.

4. All other charts will have Legends with fixed numbers of items.

5. I have attached what I get with the following code

Legend.Location = New NPointL(Point.X, Point.Y)

Legend.Data.ExpandMode = LegendExpandMode.RowsFixed

Legend.Data.RowCount = 4

Legend.UseAutomaticSize = False

Legend.Size = New NSizeL(New NLength(18, NRelativeUnit.ParentPercentage), New NLength(10, NRelativeUnit.ParentPercentage))

Legend.BoundsMode = BoundsMode.Fit

Legend.ContentAlignment = ContentAlignment.BottomRight

I have tried to use a one-size fits all approach, but this doesn't look too good. I was just wondering if anyone had any better ways of presenting the Legends, as I am currently struggling with the BoundsMode, Legend Size etc. I would like them to look more consistent, with perhaps the same font size, but from what I can see the font size is determined by the size of the Legend box.

As I said, any help or advice appreciated on better ways of presenting my Legends.

Thanks,
Marcus
