In Experience Builder, can you dock the map legend or default so it always is on?

Can you have a map legend be on by default? Perhaps just with a setting, or perhaps by docking a legend pane?

In Web App Builder I believe there's a little eye you can click to have any widget on by default, is there anything analogous in Exp Builder?

You can have a legend as a separate widget in Experience Builder. This widget can be in or outside of the map frame, and visible by default.

To replicate the WAB style and make the legend able to be closed, use a Widget Controller, where you'll find that "open by default" setting you're looking for:

Thanks Josh! I've been messing around with both the separate Legend widget and the Widget Controller. With the Widget Controller, are you able to dock where the legend will appear?

It defaults to showing up right next to the widget icon. To really control where a widget appears, I think you need to put it into a Window or something.

Yeah that's what I'm experiencing as well, I think I'll go the window route. Thanks for your help!
