Gantt Chart Legend — JS Chart Tips
November 21st, 2024 by AnyChart Team
Legend is a vital element in many charts, helping viewers quickly understand what each visual component represents. However, it is not always a must-have for every chart type. For instance, Gantt charts often work perfectly fine without a legend, so it is not enabled in our JavaScript Gantt Chart by default. That said, creating one is straightforward. Right now, we will show you how to add a legend to a Gantt chart — join us as we continue our JS Chart Tips series, sharing quick solutions inspired by real customer queries!
