[Interest] Qt Charts: Making the legend top and right aligned

[Christopher Probst]

 A solution would be doing something like this:

m_chart->legend()->setAlignment(Qt::AlignTop);

QApplication::processEvents();

m_chart->legend()->setY(m_chart->plotArea().height() - m_chartView->height() );


Which feels like a big hack. Is there a better way? There must be.
