Hi
I usually send the legend text, for a Line with 'DisplayName', when I plot it, see example below.
I am looking for a way to specify that the legend associated to the plot should be bold.
I am aware of the FontWeight property for the Legend class, but this is not what I am looking for. I would like to specify it in the plot command.
I would appreciate it if someone could give an example of how to do this!
figure
hold on
legend('show')
x=linspace(0,1,101);
y=x.^2;
plot(x,y,'DisplayName','My Parabola')
hold on
