Legend is behind Axis

[deezy178]

Hello all,

just want to thank you in advance for any help provided here, its much appreciated.

Here's my issue:
Ive created several multi series charts, and when i enable the legend on the chart, it renders behind the axis ( this happens on both the X and Y axes). Can anyone help me out with this? i searched the forum and didnt find anyone who was experiencing this same issue.

Thanks again.

Hi,
What do you mean by "behind the axis"? A legend can be moved around and arranged as you wish.
Maybe attach a screen capture so we know what exactly the problem is.

Above is the screenshot, not sure if it is going to render. The legend for the chart is behind the X axis labels or in front of it, however you look at it. normally, when you insert a legend into the chart, it makes space (padding) around the outside border so that it doesnt interfere with how the axis labels look.

any help would be much appreciated. let me know if you need a better description of what is happening.

OK, have you tried this?

If that doesn't work for some reason, you may have changed some chart elements manually, so try this:
