How to add legend to a .fig file?

Hi,

I have a .fig file which I made by cutting plots from other .fig files. So I had basically had 5 plots on 5 different .fig files. Now I added all of these in to 1 .fig file. How can I add a legend to this? I do not have the data to plot these curves again.

You do not need the data, just the handles of the line objects you wish to add legends for. You would need to open the figure, find the handles, legend() passing in those handles as the first argument, fiddle around with the legend properties, and eventually save as a figure.
