Hi Dass ,

Thanks for the reply, In the following link still the legend is inside the graph only. I need to place the legend completely outside the graph, once can u see the attachment I attached and can u let me know how to do it.

Thanks,

Hi Praveen,

it is not possible - the legend to a graph is always part of the graph (the automatically created one), so you cannot place it outside the graph.

What you can do instead is deactivate the automatic legend altogether and simulate it using textboxes.

U can use a image of legend and place in a text box outside chart.

Hi Data Nibbler,

Thanks,

Place a legend outside a chart?

Read the link above more carefully - it describes how to do exactly what you want by creating a fake chart that only has a legend which you can place anywhere on the page. You need to turn off the display of the real legend and only display the fake one.

Have you tried  to change the size and position from the various chart-parts? Press if the chart is activated Ctrl + Shift and you will get red lines around the chart-parts which you could then drag per mouse.

completely placing the legends outside of the chart is 100% not possible, u can try to create test object with the same color code for the same on out side of the chart!

else u have to try to create the same chart beside ur first chart and try to show only legends from the second chart.
