Move legend into sidebar #46

Closed slinnarsson closed 7 years ago

slinnarsson commented 8 years ago

Place the color legend in the sidebar below the color dropdown. Give it a certain amount of vertical space, and let it grow beyond that by showing scrollbars when needed.

Benefits:

You can have a large number of categories without breaking the plot.
The legend can be hidden when, in the future, we have a sliding sidebar; this gives the full screen to the plot itself

Issues:

Won't print together with the main plot (but the user can always print it separately, or we can add it to the plot when printing).
