Format Panel for Legend Selectors

Once you create a legend selector, you can customize its display.

Access

1. Open an existing dashboard that contains the legend selector to format.
2. Select the legend selector in the dashboard.

3. The Editor, Filter, and Format panels are stacked together by default. Click Format to open it.

   • If the Format panel is not available, do one of the following:

     • Starting in Strategy One (November 2025), click the Format icon in the left toolbar.

     • Prior to Strategy One (November 2025), from the View menu, select Editor Panel to display all three panels. Click Format to open it.

   • Starting in Strategy One (November 2025), you can place the Editor, Filter, and Format panels above and below each other as though in a column. To do this, drag one panel to the bottom of another. You can then adjust the relative height of the panels by hovering your cursor over the line dividing the panels and dragging the resizing icon up or down.

Text and Form tab

Font: Select font formatting options.

Shape: From the drop-down list, select the shape displayed next to each attribute element: Circle, Square, Rounded Rectangle, or Line.

Fill: The colors used in the target visualizations are automatically used for the shapes in the legend selector. You can change the color and saturation for each attribute element. This also changes the color used in the target visualizations.

Selection: By default, selections Filter the target visualizations. You can change it to Highlight the selections instead, which leaves all attribute elements displayed in the targets.

Fill: Select the color of the selections in the legend selector.

Title and Container tab

The following options are available to format the title, background, and borders of the filter container:

Title Bar: Enable to display the title on the legend selector, making the title bar formatting options available

Fill : Select the background color of the title bar from the palette. In the Percent field, type the opacity of the background as a percentage. Higher values are more opaque.

Titles: Select whether the title bar contains 1 Line or 2 Lines. If you select 2 Lines, type the text for the second line in the legend selector's title bar.

Font: Select font formatting and alignment options for the title.

• If you select 2 Lines, select which line to format: Top Line or Bottom Line.

Title Buttons: You can customize the title bar by enabling action buttons.

Container

Fill: Select the background color of the filter container from the palette. In the Percent field, type the opacity of the background as a percentage. Higher values are more opaque.

Border: Select the style and color of the filter container's borders from the drop-down lists.

Beginning in Strategy One (September 2025), you can adjust the Radius of rounded corners for the container.

• Use a number between 0 and 40.

• If the current Padding is less than 50% of the updated Radius, Padding automatically increases to match 50% of the new Radius.

Beginning in Strategy One (November 2025), you can apply a Shadow effect on the container. Select the fill color and opacity of the shadow. Define the shadow effects using the following options:

• Blur: Controls the softness of the edge to diffuse or spread out the shadow. The range is from 0 to 40, where 0 is a sharply defined line and 40 is the most blurred.

• Distance: Offsets the shadow from the container. Distance provides a 3D look, implying hierarchy or focus.

• Angle: Sets the direction of the shadow around the container, measured in degrees. For example, to display the shadow:

  • Directly on the right, use 0.

  • On the bottom and right, use 45.

  • Below the container, use 90.

  • On the top, use 270.

Position And Size: You can adjust the position and size of the legend selector using these coordinates rather than dragging and dropping the object in the page.
