New in Mathematica 9
Legends
Mathematica 9's new built-in legends can be invoked with a single, simple option that automatically incorporates the necessary styles into the legend. New legend functions leverage Mathematica's powerful typesetting language to create legends with any style, layout, or appearance, and allow them to be added to arbitrary content, such as tables and images.
