You can now export a legend from the analysis tool as an image. This is a great way to include clear, professional map keys when you use Maptionnaire maps in external reports.

The legend automatically displays the visible layers and their styles, including any conditional styling you have applied.

  1. Go to the Analysis tool and toggle on the map responses that you want to visualize. Apply any conditional styling or filters needed for your visualization.
  2. Go to the Export tab.

  4. Edit the layer names as you want them to appear in the legend.
  5. If there are layers you want to remain visible on the map but hidden from the legend, you can toggle them off in this list.

  6. Choose your preferred format and download the legend as an SVG or PNG image.
    • Tip: Using an SVG allows you to further customize the legend (such as editing fonts, reordering items, or adding section labels) in external design tools.

You can also save these legend customizations as part of a Saved view for future use.
