                  foreach (CIMLegendItem legItem in cimLeg.Items)
                  {

legItem.ClassIndent = 0;

                     legItem.HeadingIndent = 0;
                     legItem.LayerNameIndent = 0;
                     legItem.ShowGroupLayerName = false;
                     legItem.ShowLayerName = false;
                     legItem.ShowHeading = false;
                     legItem.ShowDescription = false;
                     legItem.ShowLabels = true;
                  }

            }
         }
      }
   });
   await Project.Current.SaveAsync()

}

This does not work. It is not unchecking the "Show" values in the legend item properties, nor is it not changing the indent values as well.
