Mechanical results are accompanied by legends. The properties that affect the behavior and appearance of a legend are referred to as legend settings. Legend settings can be either global (common to all results) or result-specific.
You can use legend settings objects to perform such operations as:
Modifying the behavior and appearance of a legend shown on the screen
Constructing an independent legend settings object and apply it to the current result
Copying legend settings from one result object and apply it to another result
