legend marker not changing colors in line and clustered column chart

Hello, whenever I make a legend with the line and clustered column chart I by default get this blue color for the Marker where the data sits. I would like this to match the color of the data of the Y axis but cannot find where that setting is or it if it is just a bug with the software.

Thank you for your helpThe blue dot in the legend will not changeThe blue dot in the legend will not change

Hi @manonamission12 
The options that we have to format the legend are text formatting

If you need something else you can create it manually and put it on a small card ...
Something like :

legend_format = if (AVERAGE('Table'[percent])>0.03 && AVERAGE('Table'[percent])<0.4,"🔵sum of percent" & " "& "🟣 Sum of order",
"🟠sum of percent" & " "& "🟣 Sum of order"
)

and then put it on the graph :
