Graduated Colour Symbol Legend

Use the Graduated Colour Symbol Legend (CSLEGEND GX) to place a legend describing the graduated colour symbol scheme on your map. The user must input an AGG, ITR or ZON file with the colour-value relationship. Run the GX from the Plot Symbol Legend button on the Histogram Analysis tool.

Application Notes

The Legend plots the symbols on the left, with the corresponding data ranges on the right. The legend text is scaled using the legend height and the number of colour zones in the graduated colour symbol file; some experimentation may be required with the legend height, width and symbol size to produce a well-balanced output legend.
