Text Orientation

This feature is only available if complex text layout support is enabled in - Languages and Locales - General.

Text Direction

Specify the text direction for a paragraph that uses complex text layout (CTL). This feature is only available if complex text layout support is enabled.

Overlay

Specifies whether the legend should overlap the chart. Turning off this option is useful if you want to display the legend above an empty part of the chart area instead of beside it. This way the drawing area can fill the whole chart area, increasing its readability.
