Adding legend title entry

Use the Add Legend Title window to specify the contents of the legend title. If the legend is populated from chart items, 'Untitled' is used as the first title entry that is displayed in the Edit Legend window.

Procedure

  1. On the Edit Legend window, click Title. To show the Edit Legend window, click the Publish tab, and then in the Prepare group, click Legend. If your chart does not currently contain a legend, the Legend Population Option window is shown.
    1. To populate the legend from the items on the current chart, click Yes on this window. A legend is created by using the default settings for each entry.
    2. To populate the legend manually, click No on this window. A blank legend is created.
  2. In the Text box, enter the information that you want to include in the legend title such as name, date.
  3. You can enter more than one line of text, by pressing the Enter key or by creating extra title entries. By default, each new title entry is added below any existing entries.
  4. To change the font of the title, click Font. Use the Font window to select the font.
    Tip: If you are editing an existing legend, the legend text box is populated with any previously created title (and other) entries. Use the Edit Legend Title window to edit title entries.
