Adding a Series Legend

The Series Legend displays configured reference lines, their associated labels, and visual members.

1. After double-clicking or drawing a rectangle on the dashboard canvas, click   on the Select Part pane then click the Series Legend   icon.

   The Series Legend Settings pane is displayed, and the Series Legend part is added on the dashboard canvas.

   

2. Select any of the available parent visualizations from the Linked Part drop-down list.

   The series legend is connected to its parent visualization and the link between them is displayed. The reference line listing from this visualization is retrieved and the constituent reference lines in a vertical column along with their associated levels are displayed.

   

   NOTE:

   In the example above, for SMA5, SMA10, SMA20, the square represents the configured Custom Single color for each visual member.

   

   

   For the BBU20, Close, and Volume visualizations, there are no configured Custom Single colors.

   

   Setting the Custom Single color for the visual members helps display the Color Legend for layers in the Combination Graph, in cases where the Color variable is not used.

3. On the Series Legend Settings pane, tapping the Enable User Interaction slider enables checkboxes of the visuals and reference lines and users can select or unselect them to filter which ones to displayed in the parent visualization.

   For example, if BBU20 is not selected:

   

   The visualization for BBU20 will not be displayed.

   

   If Volume is also unchecked:

   

   The visualization for Volume will also not be displayed.

   

4. Tap the Display in PDF slider to include this dashboard part in the PDF output.
5. To set the style of the Series Legend, click Style  .

   The page updates to display the Style pane.

   

   See Defining the Style of General Parts for more information.

6. Click Update Style   and select any of the following options:
   • Set current as default – Save the changes and set it as the default.
   • Create custom style – Save the changes and set it as a custom style.

     The Style pane updates to display the Title control.

     

     • Enter the custom style's Title.
     • If there are additional changes made, click Update Current Style in the Update Style drop-down.

     The new custom style is added to the Workbook > Theme > Custom Styles list.

     

     If published, the custom style configuration of the Series Legend will be added to the Global custom styles list and can be applied to other parts.

   • Reset to default – Revert to the original default settings.
7. Click the Save   icon on the toolbar to save the changes.
