title: Legend mode and legend placement
|
|
comments: |
|
|
There are two legend shared files to cover the most common combinations of options.
|
|
Using two shared files ensures that content remains consistent across visualizations that share the same options and users don't have to figure out which options apply to a specific visualization when reading that content.
|
|
This file is used in the following visualizations: state timeline, status history
|

When the legend option is enabled it can show either the value mappings or the threshold brackets. To show the value mappings in the legend, it's important that the **Color scheme** as referenced in [Color scheme](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/<GRAFANA_VERSION>/panels-visualizations/configure-standard-options/#color-scheme) is set to **Single color** or **Classic palette**. To see the threshold brackets in the legend set the **Color scheme** to **From thresholds**.

For more information about the legend, refer to [Configure a legend](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/<GRAFANA_VERSION>/panels-visualizations/configure-legend/).
