Hi all,

I was able to change the value on the legend with previous versions but currently, I am using v23R1 and the legend seems inactive to change, I've tried to double-click on the legend and change the value but nothing happened. I've checked the graphics card driver and it is up to date. Do you have any suggestions to solve the problem?

Hello Asif,

This is not a documented solution, but it has worked for some user's who switched back to a prior version graphics card rather than using the latest updated version. I hope this works for you too.

Regards,

Nanda.

Hello Asif, 

Did you find any solution? I face the same issue in 2023 R1 and R2 despite updating my graphic drivers. Your suggestions will be of great help. Thank you.

Hello Vivek,

This is the solution to edit legend, this will work in 2023R2 only.

Edit the system environment variables in the search window of your system, then click environment variable, select a new user variable in the user variable, type the variable name ANS_USE_OPENGL_LEGEND_EDIT, and set the variable value =1 Then apply this setting in the system.

Best,

Nanda
