Legend Text and Orientation

The legend displays the text contained in the SeriesLabels (a ChartGroups property), so the legend does not appear unless at least one SeriesLabel exists. SeriesLabels are a collection of labels. The first label applies to the first series, and so on. The SeriesLabels property is located on the Labels Tab (ChartGroups) on the Property Pages.

Use the legend Orientation property to lay out the legend horizontally or vertically, and the IsReversed property to specify whether to display the SeriesLabels in reverse order. These properties are located on the General Tab (Legend) on the Property Pages.
