To add a custom legend item to a legend, create a new instance of the CustomLegendItem class and add it to the LegendBase.CustomItems collection. Then, configure the custom item, for example, using the CustomLegendItem.Text property to set the item’s text and the CustomLegendItem.MarkerTemplate property to set the item’s marker.
