Hi, is there any way to move the legend BELOW the chart?

I need the legend, but it is bad when it is overlapping the graphs

Hi @asp,

moving the legend outside of the chart is not possible at the moment, I'm afraid. The best workaround I can think of would be to increase the chart size and move it to a different corner via `.legend()`.
