Add your descriptions to Title statement. Please take note how colour escape sequences, "line break" code, quote marks and plus sign are used. Btw, "legend" is used on maps in English for this.
\\c32 - change colour to red \n - line break, shift one row down \n\n - line break, shift two rows down You will find colour codes and "Title" explained here: http://www.amibroker.com/guide/h_indbuilder2.html Here is the code. If you want to include actual shapes in addition to text descriptions, then honestly I don't know how to do it. This would require including PlotShapes() function in Title statement with some quite unusual "yposition" parameter.
