Typically, I use this when trying to shoe-horn large legends around curves by breaking the large legend up into smaller pieces. Currently the only way to create a legend object is to It would be convenient to be able to create new, empty legend objects in the same manner that other empty objects (labels, plots, &c.) can be created. Ie. with an entry in the "Graphics Mode" sub-menu. I can get around the current restriction by doing the following: 1. Create the first legend object for the plot using the Edit Plot dialogue. 2. In Layout Mode, drag the first legend object off the plot. 3. Create the second legend object for the plot using the Edit Plot dialogue, again (dragging the legend off the plot rightly causes the "Show Legend" checkbox to be unchecked). 4. Drag the first legend back onto the plot. This works fine (ie. I end up with two legend objects drawn as sub-objects to the plot object), but it feels decidedly kludgey.
(you may pretend that the sentence fragment in the first paragraph ends in "use the Edit Plot dialogue." if you wish)
