I am trying to create a graphic legend, using a few simple 2D symbols, to which very simple 2-field Record Formats have been applied.
When I go to edit the Cell Layout for the Graphic Legend and create a "dynamic text" item, when I select the symbol's Record Type & Field and try to create a dynamic text component as part of the Graphic Legend cell layout, the Graphic Legend appears to simply ignore the item entirely. It doesn't show up at all in the layout, even as an empty place-holder.
When I change the data source for the dynamic text item to be an Object Function (such as "Area"), then everything works fine.
Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong?
Note that the Cell Layout is identical in both examples.
