Unable to drag down the Legend Location

Hey, I have a really annoying bug. Recently there is an issue with dragging down the Legend Location until the border of the visualization.
As in the screenshot attached, you can see I am trying to drag down my legend down the border, but nothing I do solve that.
The only way solving that is delete that visualization and create that from scratch.
That movement up of the legend location occurred just with accidental click on the visualization.

Please fix that.

hi @Eldad_Levi

thank you for posting.

the location of legend can be configured in the property setting in the visual. are you saying you configured as Bottom but didn’t work?

kind regards,
Wakana

Hi Wakana, thanks for the answer. We are facing the same issues since some weeks, also for existing dashboards, which changed by it self.
It is not connected to the selection of the position of the legend (which was not changed).
Legends where set on bevor. Now they are shift to a higher position (but still as bottom) and could not pulled down anymore.

Could you please check that again?

Hi @PhilippLW,

As highlighted by @Wakana, the only way to change the placement from one location to another is through this method. If you are still facing issues after using this option, try using the Analysis as Free-Form layout first. Check how many legends are present for your visual. Sometimes, if you have too many values, the legend placement might not work as expected.

If you are using a small size for the visual, you can adjust the font size based on that.

Please check and confirm.

Thanks & Regards

We are experiencing the same problem. It seems that a recent update has introduced a bug: legend now has minimum vertical size and it is impossible to drag it smaller. Both line chart and bar chart are affected.

The problem exists whether legend is located in bottom or top of the chart. In our case, legend is on top and the extra empty space below the legend is now taking a huge space, squishing the actual chart area to be very small vertically.

Hi @Eldad_Levi , @Oke,

Thanks for reporting this issue.
I have created an internal ticket for dev team to look into this.

If you want to keep track of status, I would recommend filing a case with AWS Support. Therein, reference the above ticket and add additional details as applicable to you. Here are the steps to open a support case. If your company has someone who manages your AWS account, you might not have direct access to AWS Support and will need to raise an internal ticket to your IT team or whomever manages your AWS account. They should be able to open an AWS Support case on your behalf. Hope this helps!
