Change position of legend and stacking to horizontal

17 views (last 30 days)
Hi,
I have this figure with a lot of information and the boxes of the legend are either larger than the box of my graph or overlay my figure curves. Therefore, I was wondering if it is possible to change the position of the legend box to under the graphs, and to change the stacking from vertical to horizontal. In attachment, I upload the figure where I illustratie what I mean.

(To be honest, I think you are correct, in that moving a legend within the figure will not help you. However, the legend function cannot be used to put a legend where you wanit it to lie.)
