I was just looking at your original post. I was assuming what you
wanted to know was how to put object graphics (the legend object, in
that case) into a draw widget, and that is what I was talking about.
But it just occurred to me that the original question might have been
just how to put a legend into a direct graphics draw widget, which
should not (cannot) be done with the object legend you were trying to
use, it should be done with xyouts. Which one is it that you wanted?
