GGU-GEO-GRAPH: "Symbols legend" menu item

If you have selected a discrete colour gradient visualisation for the symbol graphics a corresponding evaluation legend is displayed on the output sheet. If the "Show legend" check box is activated the legend presentation format can be altered in the dialog box for this menu item. The dialog box can also be accessed by double-clicking in the legend box.

Input here defines the upper left corner of the legend box. The "automatically" check boxes should always be activated for specifying the width and height, because the size of the legend is then adapted to the number of measured data points and the length of the measured data designations. The font sizes for the heading and the measured data names can also be specified, as well as selecting a background colour for the legend.

In the pull-down menu select between "Text only", "Text + to" and "Text + from/to" for legend limit value labelling. The limit values entered are shown in brackets according to the selected format.

It is possible to alter the settings for value-dependent colour-fill by pressing the "Limit values + colours" button. The same dialog box opens as for the menu item "Chart evaluation/Symbols", "Discrete colour gradient" group box, "Colour + legend preferences" button.

The preferences can be saved in a file with the ".leg" extension. If the file is saved in the program folder (default) the preferences will be automatically loaded the next time the program is started.
