The CT SET LEGEND ATTRIBUTES command sets the attributes of the legend specified by area and object.
display specifies whether or not the legend is displayed.
orientation specifies whether the series in the legend are displayed vertically or horizontally with regard to each other. Here are examples of vertical and horizontal legends:
Vertical Legend Horizontal Legend

reverseKey specifies whether the series label and the key that explains the unique pattern and color of the series are reversed. The default is to show the key to the left of the label.
The following table contains the codes for the location parameter:
Code | Location |
-1 | No change |
0 | Position legend using horizOffset and vertOffset |
1 | Top left |
2 | Bottom left |
3 | Top right |
4 | Bottom right |
5 | Left |
6 | Right |
7 | Top |
8 | Bottom |
horizOffset and vertOffset are used when location is set to 0. horizOffset is expressed in points from the left side of the graph to the left side of the legend. vertOffset is expressed in points from the top of the graph to the top of the legend.
Note: To get the text attributes of legend text, use the CT GET CHART TEXT ATTRIBUTES command.
This example displays the legend, centered at the top of the graph.
