How can I set or change the position of the legend in pyqtgraph?

Hi,

If you create the legend object and add it manually, then you can specify the position and size. There's an example of that in the Legend example code. Something like:

#legend = plt.addLegend() # Don't use this, instead create and populate legend manually
l = pg.LegendItem((100,60), offset=(70,30)) # args are (size, offset)
l.setParentItem(plt.graphicsItem()) # Note we do NOT call plt.addItem in this case
