I&nbsp;have&nbsp;created&nbsp;a&nbsp;legend&nbsp;with&nbsp;a&nbsp;title&nbsp;and&nbsp;several&nbsp;items.&nbsp;Title&nbsp;and&nbsp;items&nbsp;have&nbsp;different&nbsp;text&nbsp;styles.  
  
then&nbsp;set&nbsp;height&nbsp;and&nbsp;width&nbsp;as&nbsp;below:

legendLayer.Height&nbsp;=&nbsp;(cbStyle.ClassBreaks.Count)&nbsp;\*&nbsp;45;

&nbsp;legendLayer.Width&nbsp;=&nbsp;260;

&nbsp;legendLayer.Title&nbsp;=&nbsp;title;

&nbsp;legendLayer.Location&nbsp;=&nbsp;

&nbsp;

AdornmentLocation.UpperRight;

&nbsp;m.AdornmentOverlay.Layers.Add(LegendLayerName,&nbsp;legendLayer);

Legend&nbsp;item’s&nbsp;text&nbsp;style&nbsp;is&nbsp;set&nbsp;with&nbsp;font&nbsp;8&nbsp;to&nbsp;start.&nbsp;It&nbsp;works&nbsp;when&nbsp;first&nbsp;time&nbsp;loading&nbsp;the&nbsp;map.&nbsp;However,&nbsp;then&nbsp;if&nbsp;I&nbsp;zoom&nbsp;the&nbsp;map&nbsp;and&nbsp;change&nbsp;map&nbsp;scales,&nbsp;the&nbsp;fond&nbsp;changes&nbsp;to&nbsp;10&nbsp;and&nbsp;items&nbsp;are&nbsp;closer&nbsp;to&nbsp;each&nbsp;other:&nbsp;I&nbsp;noticed&nbsp;that&nbsp;the&nbsp;legend’s&nbsp;height/weight&nbsp;did&nbsp;not&nbsp;get&nbsp;changed.&nbsp;It&nbsp;did&nbsp;not&nbsp;call&nbsp;the&nbsp;function&nbsp;that&nbsp;created&nbsp;the&nbsp;legend.  
  
  
  
Any&nbsp;ideas?

no.&nbsp;Seems&nbsp;set&nbsp;to&nbsp;Fixed&nbsp;fixes&nbsp;the&nbsp;problem.&nbsp;So&nbsp;what&nbsp;is&nbsp;default?

Hi&nbsp;Guangming,&nbsp;&nbsp;  
&nbsp;&nbsp;  
&nbsp;It&nbsp;looks&nbsp;Resizable&nbsp;should&nbsp;be&nbsp;the&nbsp;default&nbsp;value.&nbsp;  
&nbsp;&nbsp;  
&nbsp;Regards,&nbsp;
