What version of TAchart is the laBottomCenter option in?  I have the 
official release of Lazarus (0.9.30, 30 March 2011) and the only 
alignment options I have are laTopRight, laTopLeft, laBottomRight, and 
laBottomLeft. With those, the UseSidebar option forces the legend to the 
right or left and squeezes the chart's horizontal dimensions.

I tried coding the alignment option in the plot procedure, but it is 
flagged as an error upon compiling.  I also tried typing the 
laBottomCenter in the object inspector, but as soon as I leave, Lazarus 
resets it to laBottomRight.
