Title: Conditional palette label problem
Post by: knivskarp on 09 Jul 2015 03:10:53 AM
Hi all,

I´ve search the forum for this question and found some old answers, but i just want a up to date answer, coz that solution sounds quite old fashion.
When i´m adding a condiontional palette to a line chart i want only my new colors to be displayed in the legend. When i´m adding my conditional palette labels to the legend, i´m also getting the old labels. Is there a solution for this?

Thanks in advance,

/Knivskarp

There is no solution.
I had the problem recently and ended up building a custom legend with nested tables, coloured blocks and text items.

Thanks for your answer Robl.

I find this problem a bit annoying :(
Anyone else with another solution for this?

I completely agree that it's unfortunate the product doesn't support this inherently, but sadly that's the answer. Although you might not like Robl's reply, he's giving you correct advice.
