Legend to latex converter

Hi Diane,

See below for an example of how this file can be used. I noted that the figure_handle is different from the figure_handle as expected by LaPrint. I use a direct handle, where LaPrint uses the figure number.

Good luck,
Emile

%%%%% EXAMPLE %%%%%%
set(0,'defaulttextinterpreter','none');
x = [0:0.1:(2*pi)];
fig1 = figure(1);
plot(x,sin(x),x,cos(x));
legend('sin($\theta$)','cos($\theta$)');
xlabel('$0 \leq \theta \leq 2\pi$')
legend2latex(fig1);
laprint(1,'figure1');

Works like a charm. For those who want to use this with plotepstex (and plot2eps):

In the plotepstex.m file:

Comment out the legend-handling code at lines 104-125 and lines 154-173.

Then add the following lines at line 147:

if ~isempty(legend)
    legend2latex(h)
end

Hello Emile,

is the any possibility of locating the legend elsewhere? Just like in the legend command " ..., 'Location', 'EastOutside' ..." etc.? Would be a great help.
Thanks for sharing your script by the way!

This solution works perfectly for me combined with laprint, but whenever I include legend2latex i lose the marker information stored within the legend.

For reference this is what I am using,

util1 = figure;
plot(sense_times, ut, '-*b', 'LineWidth', 1);
hold on;
plot(sense_times, ut_g, '-or', 'LineWidth', 1);
legend1 = legend('Local Util.', 'Global Util.', 'Location', 'SouthEast');
%set(legend1, 'Box', 'off');
%set(legend1, 'Color', 'none')
xlabel('Sensed Frequencies');
ylabel('Utilization');
title('Frequency Utilization (PU Activity = 0.2)');
grid on;
figfontsizes(11,9);
legend2latex(util1);
% legendstr_h = findobj(gca,'Tag', 'legend2latex_text');
% xlim_ax1 = get(gca,'XLim'); ylim_ax1 = get(gca,'YLim');
% set(legendstr_h, 'Position', [min(xlim_ax1)+1.7*range(xlim_ax1), 1.0125*max(ylim_ax1) 0]);
laprint(gcf,'util1','width',11,...
'asonscreen','off','keepfontprops','off',...
'factor',1,'scalefonts','off','mathticklabels','on');
