Adding legend to plot window before actually plotting
显示 更早的评论
I have written a timer object function which updates a plot every 10ms. The plot window is all set up before the first timerFCN iteration. It basically plots 2 sets of data (one red line and one blue line with respect to time). I need to add a legend to this plot. Is there somehow i create a custom legends (i.e. define my own linestyle and linecolour for the legend). Since it only starts plotting once the first timerFcn runs, if i try to add a legend before this, it comes up with Warning: Plot empty.
I could add the legend in the timerFcn code section, but since its running every 10ms, just running that one extra line will cause my code to run a bit slower, which i cant have.
Thanks

Create the two lines ahead of time, with the appropriate color and marker, and with [] as their XData and YData. You can then legend(). After that, as you go, update the XData and YData properties of the two lines to reflect the incoming data.

Did you try to go in Edit-> Figure Properties in the plot window?
