Hi Andrey,

Could you give an example of the need to set it?

If each point of your plot is different, u can right click legend and choose Point to Point legend which automatically shows each point in legend.

Thanks, Snow

It depends what plot type it is.
E.g. try to plot scatter plot with open circle, border and fill use different colors.
Though it's scatter plot, u can use the following to show blocks instead of circle shape in legend.

\l(1,4,1) it will show a block with border color of 4th point
\l(1,4,2) it will show a block with fill color of 4th point

Try to plot a bar chart with each bar using different border color, fill color and pattern colors.
U can use the following
\(1,4,1) to show block with border color of 4th point
\(1,4,2) to show block with fill color of 4th point
\(1,4,3) to show block with pattern color of 4th point
\(1,4,4) will show open circle with black color no matter what border color it is.

I couldn't figure out when 7 works.
But usually don't enter the option. It will use the true plot's style.

Thanks, Snow
