Hi Smith,

After entering the data into the XYChart, you may call BaseChart.layoutLegend to ask ChartDirector to layout the legend box, so as to determine its height. Then you may use XYChart.packPlotArea to adjust the plot area size based on the legend box height.

There is an example in ChartDirector called "Missing Data Points" demonstrating this approach. (You may look up "Missing Data Points" from the ChartDirector documentation index.) In that example, the legend box in that example only has 1 line, but the method works even if the legend box has multiple lines.

Hope this can help.

Regards
Peter Kwan
