Any way to change the color of a legend shape?

[SD]

I have a tree chart composed of process symbols, each
symbol using 1 of 3 color to designate opinions, facts &
guesses. I would like to make a legend in the corner, but
am unsure how to do it. I have found the legend shapes,
and have played around with them. It appears they only
refence the shape, not colored shapes - am I right about
that? What would be the best way to create a legend to
the 3 colored symbols? I suppose I could make a box &
paste the 3 symbols in it, adding the reference text
myself. Is there an easier way?
Thanks in advance,
SD

Try creating three copies of your process shape and place them on your
stencil. Then adjust the colour accordingly. Then drop each shape on the
legend shape to make the shape show up in the legend.

The legend reflects the content of the local stencil.
