Hello,

I noticed that I can't display a legend for color range in Metric in Kibana7.10. I had this possibility in Kibana 5.6.

 ![Kibana5.6](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/d/6/d60cbf781b3757b95071793c5d76249eb269e515.png)  
 ![Kibana7.10.1](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/b/b/bb92c104340f798aba06fa61a83c7cfc1dc69256.png)

I attached screenshots in order to see better in which part of the METRIC configuration I am.  
Am I searching in the bad part? Or is there a bug ?

Thanks in advance!

Alexandra

5.6 was a long time ago. We did a big change to how metric visualization works in 6.1, and it looks like legend indeed got lost somewhere along the way.  
Starting from 7.10 Lens became [generally available](https://www.elastic.co/blog/kibana-lens-now-generally-available) and we encourage users to create visualizations through Lens editor. Looks like the team already has color implementation on their radar (see [issue](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/102035). You can follow the linked issue for updates on this and possibly let the team know your requirements there.  
It is unlikely there will be changes to the "old" Metrics editor in the meantime.
