hiding legend in plot

Dear All,

I want to hide one legend from my graph. Could you please suggest a procedure or steps to do it.

Here is the code below to hiding my legend but doesn't work.

legend(h4,'off')
legend(h4,'toggle')
legend('h1','h2', 'h3', 'h4','h5');

Many Thanks in advance

Babai

I assume you have 5 handles, h1 through h5, but want to hide h4 from appearing in a legend. If that's the case, since you know all handles, the easiest way is probably

legend([h1 h2 h3 h5],{'h1','h2','h3','h5})

Get the handle form the legend when you create it

hLeg = legend('example')

Then turn its visibility off

set(hLeg,'visible','off')

[Nirjhar Kumar]

in case you dont have the any handle:

hFig=findall(0,'type','figure');

hLeg=findobj(hFig(1,1),'type','legend');

set(hLeg,'visible','off')
