How to setup legend for a figure with two axes (left and right)?

54 Ansichten (letzte 30 Tage)
I have a figure with two axes (left and right). 2 lines on left axis and one line on right axis. I can not get all legends in one box using following code.
PS. I have read previous discussions (links below) on this topic but does not seem to work for me!
x = 0:0.01:10;
y11 = sin(x);
y12 = cos(x);
y2 = ones(1001,1);
figure;
ax(1) = axes('position',[0.1 0.1 0.8 0.8]);
ax(2) = axes('position',[0.1 0.1 0.8 0.8], 'yaxislocation','right','color','none');
line('parent',ax(1),'xdata',x,'ydata',y11,'color','b');
line('parent',ax(1),'xdata',x,'ydata',y12,'color','g');
line('parent',ax(2),'xdata',x,'ydata',y2,'color','r');
legend( [ax(1) ; ax(2)] , {'sin','cos','one'} )

You can create the legend using the handles of your line objects:
l1=line('parent',ax(1),'xdata',x,'ydata',y11,'color','b');
l2=line('parent',ax(1),'xdata',x,'ydata',y12,'color','g');
l3=line('parent',ax(2),'xdata',x,'ydata',y2,'color','r');
legend( [l1;l2;l3] , {'sin','cos','one'} );

How would you then move the legend?

Try the legend separately:
legend(ax(1) , {'sin','cos'} ) ;
legend(ax(2) , {'one'} ) ;

Thanks. Although it's more favorable to have all legends in one box

For R2014b that works fine but for R2017a only last legend is showing (i.e., ax(2) legend) ignoring the first one (, i.e. ax(1)). This is really important as I want to set location for these two legend at two different location and so cannot use a single legend command. Please help how to proceed.
