Hi All,<br>
<br>
I really love the massif-visualizer, it's been tremendously helpful
digging into memory consumption issues in a complex application that
has to run for long periods of time!!<br>
<br>
I found that the legend could occlude a fairly large portion of the
chart making it hard to see and interact with the chart. Since the
project is so helpful to me I wanted to contribute. I've added
ability to control the placement of the legend and change it's font
size. For instance it could be placed beside the chart now. I also
added a "save as" menu item so that the charts can be saved to an
image for sharing with collaborators. <br>
<br>
here are images produced using the new "save as" feature showing the
original issue and new placement control, and a screen shot of the
settings dialog.<br>

I'm sending git style patches with this mail, which I hope could be
reviewed and applied assuming they are up to snuf. I hope that these
are welcome. If there's a better way to submit changes for review,
please point me to it.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
