To make this work for me, drag the legend into an area above or below your chart and you will notice that the red boundary bars 'snap into' an area above or below the chart. make sure your legend is sized wide before you try. Then it should start to span left to right.&nbsp; Look at these screenshots<IMG alt="legend1.png" class="jive-image" src="https://community.qlik.com/legacyfs/online/63758_legend1.png" style="width: 620px; height: 335px;" /><IMG alt="legend2.png" class="jive-image" src="https://community.qlik.com/legacyfs/online/63759_legend2.png" style="width: 620px; height: 319px;" /></P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 05 Aug 2014 15:53:32 GMT https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Legend-Position-Size/m-p/717617#M540257 JonnyPoole 2014-08-05T15:53:32Z Re: Legend Position/Size? https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Legend-Position-Size/m-p/717618#M540258 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi Jonathan -</P><P></P><P>I have played with that for a while.&nbsp; I can dock it to any side of the graph and give the legend way, way more room than it needs to generate more than one column, but still no luck.&nbsp; Seems like this is comically difficult for such a simple design request <IMG src="https://community.qlik.com/legacyfs/online/emoticons/angry.png" />.</P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 05 Aug 2014 19:44:16 GMT https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Legend-Position-Size/m-p/717618#M540258 2014-08-05T19:44:16Z Re: Legend Position/Size? https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Legend-Position-Size/m-p/717619#M540259 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Outside of docking it, did you try expanding the width and decreasing the height forcing multiple columns?</P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 05 Aug 2014 19:53:28 GMT https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Legend-Position-Size/m-p/717619#M540259 joshabbott 2014-08-05T19:53:28Z Re: Legend Position/Size? https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Legend-Position-Size/m-p/717620#M540260 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Yes I did - it just generated scrolling arrows for me.</P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 05 Aug 2014 19:55:01 GMT https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Legend-Position-Size/m-p/717620#M540260 2014-08-05T19:55:01Z Re: Legend Position/Size? https://community.qlik.com/t5/QlikView/Legend-Position-Size/m-p/717621#M540261 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hmm... sounds like you've tried a lot of things trying to get it working.
