[Qgis-user] raster map legend

[John C. Tull]

Alessandro,

This is currently not possible. I have had to make a legend in a  
separate graphics program and add it as an image to the composer  
canvas. You can do just the raster legend by hand and have a vector  
legend built by the composer, then superimpose the raster legend on  
the canvas. This is the best workaround I have found thus far.

Alternatively, you can vectorize your raster and set the colors the  
same. You could then just use a vector layer instead of a raster.

Cheers,
John
