Programmatically expanding label space in Plot Legends

[intp56]

I know that manually expanding the Plot legend with the left corners expands the label area. How do I do the same thing programmatically? Changing the width property seems to add space to the right side.

According to the Help File entries for those properties the size properties expand or contract from the right side. Mike...

The property states that "the legend expands and contracts to the right". So this will expand the plot box in the legend but it will not expose more gray area for the plot name. I do not see any way to expand the legend to the left.
