Tip:  To remove a legend, click the Close icon in the legend bar. You can always show it again by clicking Home > Legend.

Note: 

  • Each layer has its own legend. You can arrange them separately to show different details for different layers. You can also change their size and place them in different locations on the map.

  • Legends are available for all chart types, and they're automatically updated every time you make a change to their associated layer.

  • You can't edit or format the labels in a legend.
