The Contour Legend Options controls the formatting and location of a displayed legend. If a contour [[SMS:Data Sets|dataset]] exists and is displayed, the legend will be shown if the Legend check box on the [[SMS:Contour_Display_Options|Contour Display Options]] dialog is checked. This window is accessed only from the Legend Options button on the [[SMS:Contour Display Options|Contour Display Options]] page of the [[ SMS:Display Options|Display Options]] dialog.

The Formatting section includes fields for the Title and Units displayed with the legend, a Font selection button for text style, and Height and Width fields for legend size.
 
Since contour datasets can be displayed for multiple modules at the same time and, therefore, multiple contour legends can be displayed, the Title field can include keywords for convenient labeling. The following title keywords are case sensitive:
:* "MODULE" – will be replaced with the title of the contour dataset's module
:* "DS" – will be replaced with the name of the currently selected contour dataset
:* "DS:TS" – will be replaced with the name of the currently selected contour dataset followed by the current time step
A title of "MODULE DS:TS" is best since it will automatically update as contour dataset selection changes.
 
The Units field includes the single case sensitive keyword of "DEFAULT", which will be replaced with the velocity units of meters per second (m/s) or feet per sceond (ft/s) based on the current coordinate system's horizontal units.
 
The Location section includes a combo box for specifying the location of the displayed legend. The locations include:
:* Top left corner
:* Bottom left corner
:* Top right corner
:* Bottom right corner
:* Screen location - specify the location based on screen precentages
:* World location - specify the coordinate location
