Possible to manipulate Legend?
 

:rolleyes: Hi,
is it somehow possible to manipulate the legend of a chart?

I would like to only show the first, say, four series in the legend of
a chart even if there are, say, seven series available. Is this
possible?

Thank you,
Siri

Siri -

To remove unwanted legend entries:

1. Select the legend
2. Select the unwanted legend entry (the text label, not the marker)
3. Press Delete

To undo this, you need to delete and reinstate the entire legend.

Hi Jon,
Thanks! Had earlier tried to select and delete the marker which made
the whole series to disappear, had not noticed that the text label also
could be selected...
