I have a MATLAB figure "abc.fig". The size of the legend is very large and has covered the graphs. I want to reduce its size and change its location. How can I do it? I applied the right click options but in vain.

This is your 70th question. By now you should be aware of the advice to attach relevant files and code. Why haven't you done that yet?

You can try playing with the 'location' optional input, for example using
legend('blabla1','blabla2','Location','bestoutside')
Many options are available (check out this link)

Did you play with all options for the location? For example the

You have a lot of text in your legend. You shoud try to compress the expalnations.
If you really want to keep the current text, you can try to reduce the fontsize, even I don't recommend this option for legibility.
clear all
clc
x=[10 15 20 25 30 35 40];
y1=[0.48 0.31 0.2 0.16 0.15 0.14 0.14];%Purple

Thank you very much dear Fabio Freschi for your guiadance. Yes you are right that decreasing the font size seems bad. Your above code is very good. But since I reduce the size of the figure, so with that the legend area becomes large abd covers the graphs. With your code, the legend goes down and its very good but since I reduce the size of theb figure window so it seems very strnage to me.
