Legend
The Legend can be used to help end-users identify different chart elements such as series, constant lines, strips. The ShowInLegend property of such elements controls whether an entry is displayed in the legend for the item. Each legend entry can be displayed using its corresponding legend marker and text identifying the entry. For more detailed information, refer to Legends.
