Figure-level legend

fig.legend() draws one legend for the whole grid instead of repeating the same entries in every panel – labels are de-duplicated across axes. The "lower center" placement (default) reserves a band at that edge and shrinks the grid to fit, so it never lands on a plot.

Live figure — pick a tool, then zoom, pan, point-pick or annotate. Nothing is active until a tool is selected.
