Can I add at this plot a legend like that in this plot? Also, why do the colors of the grid appear thicker than those of the colorbar?
Best Answer
To add a legend, you just have to call
\addlegendentry{label text}
at least once, or set the entry/entries in some other way (using\legend{<list of label texts>}
or thelegend entries={<list of label texts>}
key). By default, the label texts are associated with the plots in the sequence they were created.If, in your example, you add the command
\addlegendentry{$f(x)$
after your\addplot
command (or before, it doesn't technically matter, but it's more semantic to add it after). Then you will getNote that a line is shown in the legend, even though it doesn't appear in the plot. That's because you created a line plot, and the legend image doesn't take your filling into account. If you use
\addplot [area style] ...
, the legend will look likeTo add more lines to the legend without associated plots, you can call
\addlegendimage{empty legend}
and then\addlegendentry
as usual. To have the label texts left aligned, you can calllegend cell align=left
.Here's the complete code:
