Hi Rajat,

in Grap Builder just click with Left-Mouse-Button on the Legend you want to change and select "Edit" (the last entry) -> "Show Properties".

Then on the right hand side of the screen the Properties appear and in the line "Text" you can write whatever you want for yor Legend.

You can also edit the text there in kind of Font, Font Scale, Color, etc.

I hope this solves your problem.

BR,

Marcus

And after you interactively change it, you can save the script (red triangle menu) to see how to do it in JSL if you need to script the change. The same approach works for titles and axis names as well.

Hi @Rajat,

no problem, I just created a short pdf guide and packed it in the appendix, which should help you with your problem.

Thanks @Marcus_Maier it’s helpful but I want to change the legends name not the title of the graph builder. For example I want to change the legend “count measure” (right side of the last graph builder image in your pdf) to just “measure”. Please help me to know how I can change that.

Hi @Rajat ,

ok, I guess now I got you...

double click on the name in the legend -> "Legend Settings" window will appear -> double click on the text you want to overwrite (in your case "Mean(Variable Name)" ) to "Variable Name" -> and click ok.

You will find a short guide in the appendix.

BR,

Marcus
