MATLAB: Is it possible to interpret legends differently

interpretlatexlegendplottext;

I woud like to interpret a legend by 'latex' but another without LaTeX, is it possible?

Best Answer

Yes, when you create a legend either set 'Interpreter' when you create it or use

hLegend = legend(...)

to keep a handle to your legend, then you can change it afterwards as e.g.

hLegend.Interpreter = 'none';

The legend function does not allow you to set the interpreter as one of the main arguments. You have to return a handle to it, and then use that to set the interpreter:

lgd = legend('p1','p2','p3','Location','northwest');
set(lgd,'Interpreter','latex')

MATLAB: How to turn off the LaTeX interpreter in the legend within MATLAB

The LaTeX interpreter can be turned off for a text object by setting the 'Interpreter' property to 'none'. You can specify the interpreter to be used with the legend using the 'Interpreter' parameter/value pair input argument to the LEGEND function. For example,

figure; plot(1:10)
l = legend({'test_line'}, 'Interpreter', 'none');

Note that the legend string(s) must be enclosed in a cell array.

You can also set the 'Interpreter' property after the creation of the legend:

figure; plot(1:10)
l = legend('test_line');
set(l, 'Interpreter', 'none')
