    57 Basicly, creating a renderer class is not very complicated. You'll have to create a class that inherit from the '''Fusion.Widget.!Legend.!LegendRenderer''' and implement these five functions: ''initialize'', ''renderLegend'', ''mapLoaded'', ''mapReloaded'', ''mapLoading''. The first function is for initialize the base class and initialize all specific properties of your renderer (creating div, button, image, adding CSS, etc.). The second is the main function that will draw the legend. The last three functions are only for handle the events and do specifics actions. (Fusion.Event.MAP_LOADED, Fusion.Event.MAP_RELOADED, Fusion.Event.MAP_LOADING).
