[closed] Manual Legend - Graph
Hello

I have a customized bar graph with colors based on year.

Is there a way to manually display legend with customizations to text, marker type etc.?
I used below code but no legend is displayed
setFontName(getLegendText(),"SansSerif");
setFontSizeAbsolute(getLegendText(),true);
setFontSizeInPoints(getLegendText(),10);
setPlaceResize(getLegendText(),0);
setFontStyle(getLegendText(),2);
setLegendSeriesStart(1);
setTextString(getLegendLabel(0),"2015");
setDisplay(getLegendLabel(0),true);
setTextString(getLegendLabel(1),"2014");
setDisplay(getLegendLabel(1),true);
setTextString(getLegendLabel(2),"2013");
setDisplay(getLegendLabel(2),true);
setTextString(getLegendLabel(3),"2012");
setDisplay(getLegendLabel(3),true);
setMarkerShape(getLegendLabelMarker(0),1);
setMarkerShape(getLegendLabelMarker(1),1);
setMarkerShape(getLegendLabelMarker(2),1);
setMarkerShape(getLegendLabelMarker(3),1);
setFillColor(getLegendLabelMarker(0),new Color(115,115,115));
setFillColor(getLegendLabelMarker(1),new Color(243,93,19));
setFillColor(getLegendLabelMarker(2),new Color(130,184,201));
setFillColor(getLegendLabelMarker(3),new Color(168 182 124));


Please suggest.

You may need to include one or both of these as well:

setLegendAutomatic(false);             // Turn off legend automatic setting
setLegendDisplay(true);                // Turn onlegend

Us developers (not users) like having some reproducible code to play with.

I've created a program that anyone with the CAR file can run. I've left your graph style pretty much intact. The code does produce a graph with the legend.

You may need to view the source of your graph to see if any error/warning messages were generated.
