How to create multilines legend in Data Studio

In Data Studio my 10 points pie chart is like below:

enter image description here

As you can see there is a navigation arrow in the legend at the top of the pie.

I wonder how can I avoid the navigation by creating the multiline legend? How can I wrap the current single line legend?

Three ways to display all items in the legend; located in the Style Tab of the Pie Chart (added a GIF to elaborate):

  1. Increasing the max lines;
  2. Increasing the width of the Pie Chart;
  3. Reducing the font size of the legend.

EDIT: Multi line Legend (Workaround using a Bar Chart)
How about using the legend from a Bar Chart? Added a GIF to elaborate as well as a few points:

  • Bar Chart: Use a Dimension and Breakdown Dimension that's the same as the one on the Pie Chart and enable the legend (Top) as well as using 2 lines (no legend for the Pie Chart)
  • Shape: Add a Shape over the Bar Chart (one that blends in with the background)
  • Order: Right click on components and select Order from the drop down to change the order of the components (Bar Chart: Send to back; Shape: Send Backwards (behind the Pie Chart); Pie Chart: Bring to Front)
  • Fine Tuning: Use Shift + Movement for precision placement (to get the shape exactly where you want it)
