 The line chart view can now show a legend. Currently, it is on the right. When I add the chart view options, the user will be able to move it. Is the right side a good default?

 The right side is a good default. There are a couple of other things, however, that need to be fixed.

1. There is a legend name column that right now is a duplicate of the Variable column. There is no way to edit the legond name (at least on my Windows build). Either get rid of the column or make it editable.

2. The "Show Line Series in Legend" checkbox is annoying because you first have to select a variable in the list, and usually that results in the line series being toggled. It is also of dubious value as most (if not all) of the time you will just want to turn the legend on or off, not individual lines in the legend. Replace the Show Line Series in Legend option with a simple Show Legend option that turns it completely off and on. On a similar note, the Enable Line Series checkbox can simply go away.

 1. The legend name column isn't editable but it will be. The list widget only allows changing the flags for the entire row. The user shouldn't edit the array name (the array name is the identifier in the property array). I plan on changing the list widget to a list view, but that means I have to copy the all on/off checkbox in the header. Changing the widget will also fix the problem when trying to select an item and changing the enabled state of the line series.

2. Several representations can display line series on the same line chart/legend. It made more sense to put the legend on/off checkbox on the view options for the line chart. I can remove the line series legend checkbox. I added it to give the user plenty of options.

I'd like to leave the enable line series checkbox because it adds some useful convenience. You can select multiple items in the array list and turn their visibility on and off all at once with the checkbox. It seems more useful than the all on/off checkbox since there can be unwanted arrays in the list (block id, etc.).

 The new active chart options dialog allows the user to turn the legend on and off.

 I removed the legend check box from the line series representation panel. The user has to turn the legend on and off using the view settings dialog. The legend name column is now editable as well.
