Description
The idea of the feature would be to automatically generate a legend box with all kind of element and relation in the current view.
This include different color scheme as well
For instance, 2 Application Components with two different colors would generate two different elements inside the legend part
Possibilities :
- All the legend can be made of visual element, thus not beeing referenced in the Model
- Instead of adding core element to generate the legend, Note as color boxes might work
- A connection can be fully customized between two blank notes, and appear as a right Relation

No files, tests, or entry points are named; start by locating the current-view rendering and visual-element code, then define which legend contents and customization behavior would count as complete.
