auto builder = MakeObject<DocumentBuilder>(doc);

SharedPtr<Shape> shape = builder->InsertChart(ChartType::Line, 450, 300);
SharedPtr<Chart> chart = shape->get_Chart();

ASSERT_EQ(3, chart->get_Series()->get_Count());
ASSERT_EQ(u"Series 1", chart->get_Series()->idx_get(0)->get_Name());
ASSERT_EQ(u"Series 2", chart->get_Series()->idx_get(1)->get_Name());
ASSERT_EQ(u"Series 3", chart->get_Series()->idx_get(2)->get_Name());

// Move the chart's legend to the top right corner.
SharedPtr<ChartLegend> legend = chart->get_Legend();
legend->set_Position(LegendPosition::TopRight);

// Give other chart elements, such as the graph, more room by allowing them to overlap the legend.
legend->set_Overlay(true);

doc->Save(ArtifactsDir + u"Charts.ChartLegend.docx");
