Well, what you provided was pretty close, it's just that the legend was
partly placed outside the figure...

Right, this is the problem. The location your example provided is
perfect, except that I may have no control over the length of the legend
text, and so need to find a way to make sure the figure size is such
that the legend doesn't end up being half off the figure...
Anyone know how to do that?
(and thanks to Matthias for all his help! :-) )
