Coloring the legend

I have a scatter chart where I have replaced the symbol dynamically with a circle of varying opacity and size. Each series is assigned a color from a custom color wheel I have created.
The chart looks great, however, the legend is still using the default color wheel and does not match the relevant series data.
The node returned from chart.getLegend() does not seem to have the hooks which will allow me to impose my color wheel.
So does anyone know how I can do this? Or a pragmatic workaround would be to match my color wheel with the javafx default. Either approach works for me.
Thanks,

Turns out that it was ridiculously easy to create an attractive custom legend without resorting to remapping legend item properties and such. Since I was creating a motion chart, this custom legend is better since I can show overlapping circles with diminishing opacity with a labels which indicate the meanings of these opaciities.
I had seen those links, ran dump and found nothing. It turns out that problem was due to the fact that I hadn't populated the chart with data yet and that there was no legend. Two lines out of sequence and amazingly invisible to my hours of staring, prodding and poking the code.
Thank you kindly for your response. This forum is proving effective.

How to display the color of time period and the legend in Calendar view?

Hi,
Sorry to disturb you guys with a quite simple question.
I want to do a calendar view to display the period of absence for the portal user. I've setup the iView but it displays neither the color of time period nor the legend.
The problem is:
1) If I test with static legend (that is, I input the time period directly in the form instead of using data service),
 a) I could only define one time period, because it's impossible to map the out port of calendar to in port of form on defining the event as 'goto'.
 b) I can't see the color displayd while deploying although there is just one time period! Neither the legend. I' ve given the label and color of the legend and assigned the action as default in design board. Why it doesn't work?
2) If I test with dynamic legend following the chapter "Display Date on a Calendar" in the Modeler's Guide of VC;
 I assigned @RECORDNR to 'ID legend field', and used BAPI_ABSENCE_GETLIST as dynamic legend data service to edit the legend, and assigned the color for every ID. But neither color nor legend could kindly appear. What's the problem? Is there any error in the edit of entry list of the legend?
Please help me! Thanks!!!

Is there any advice?
I'll greatly appreciate your help!

Controling the legend in Numbers

Hi all,
I'm trying to edit a chart I have drawn using XY scatter data with Numbers '09. Besides colors, I would like to distinguish my data lines with solid, dotted, and dashed lines. Numbers lets me do this easily, but I don't seem to have any control over how the data is labeled in my legend. There, all the data is labeled with a solid line, regardless of whether the data it represents is dotted or solid.
Is there any workaround to this besides manually creating my own legend with text boxes and assorted lines?
Thanks!

Numbers seems to think that color and data symbol are all that is required to distinguish one series from another in the legend. The problem is that sometimes you don't want to use data symbols (like on charts with many data points), color doesn't do you much good if you make black and white copies, and sometimes you want to use the same color for two or more series to show that they are related to each other (the dashed versus solid line type distinguishes them from each other).
Here is one workaround if you are not using data points on your chart. For a dashed line, set the data point to an X, set the size to 2, and set the color to the background color (typically white). That'll make the legend have a dashed line. For the actual line on the chart, you have to set it to be a dashed line in the Graphic Inspector. This is not a perfect solution but I don't know of a better one

Editing Chart legends: How to change the line structure within the legend?

Hi,
I have one problem: I have several charts in Numbers and since I need to print them in black/white, colors cannot be used to differentiate between the lines. So if I have a dotted line and a solid line, the legend only shows me solid lines as line symbols, so the line structure is not reflected within the legend. Can I change that?

_This question was already asked and responded._
Put a text box with the true kind of line above the one displayed automatically.

Well, the only way to edit that is to select the Legend entry (In Preview Mode Only) > Right-click > Edit Axis Label.
You would need to do this for every Legend entry.

In the year view, why is iCal coloring the boxes?

In the year view, why is iCal coloring the boxes and what does each color mean and how do we change it? It makes no sense or has any rhymn or reason according to what is in my calendar.

By default it is colored by the number of entries for each day. From white for no entries through yellow to orange and then red for the most entries.
Hope this helps.

How to change the text in the legend of a graph programmatically in labview

I have many graphs in one plot and want to show the legend the name of the graph (i.e. the filename). How do I change the text in the legend programmatically?

Create a property node for your graph. Use the property node "Active Plot" to define which plot (or line) you want to rename. Then write the new legend label to the property node "Plot.Name". See attached.

Is there a way to display the legend for a chart, but not the chart?

Hi,
I have a stacked column chart and a line chart on top of each other. I can't use the legend for the stacked column chart because the data will change from month to month, and the 2 charts will not be aligned. I copied the stacked column chart to another part of the canvas and want to display only the legend, but the chart is still displaying. Is there a way to prevent the chart from displaying? Thanks.
