customizing a legend in a bar chart

[Anonymous]

Hi,

It must be possible in a bar chart to set a legend so that its items would be located horisintally but not vertically. Please see the file attached. This is what I want to do.

How can I do it?

Thank you in advance,

Larisa

use the key combination CTRL + SHIFT, red lines will appear around the component parts of you chart and you can click on drag the legend to the position and orientation you need

Press the Ctrl and Shift keys simultaneously. You'll see red outlines around the chart elements. You can now drag the Legend box to the top of the chart. Once it expands to the entire width of the chart you can let go and the legend should be displayed horizontally at the top of the chart.
