Legend labels start in the wrong place and jump

[davidac...@gmail.com]

Hi folks,
    I am a new user and this is my first post!  I am trying to put a legend on a bar chart.  The code is pretty simple:

The problem is, when you load the page, the labels for the legend are covered up with the color bars.  When you click Start, they jump into the expected place.  I have searched all over an have not found much about legends.  Any help you all could provide would be awesome!
Thanks!
David

Thank you for pointing this out. We will try to fix this bug soon. Until then, a quick workaround is to trigger a board update after creating the legend. In your case it would be

var legend = brd_grph_bar.create("legend", [0.5,140],{labels: ["Kinetic Energy", "Potential Energy", "Total Energy"],colors: ["red", "blue", "green"]});  
brd_grph_bar.update();

Best wishes,

Alfred
