Hello,

 

One alternative to your solution which can hide a lot of the plotted data if the legend names are big:

(figure)

is to keep the legends as short as possible by using only numbers and placing the full text of the curve legends on the figure's title:
(figure)

Yes, it's a nice solution.

It would be important to have in plot2d the option to post the legends completely outside the plotting area. Could we achieve this by using subplots for instance?

it is not really the job of plot2d() to put legends, despite its leg=.. parameter.
legends() (and legends_multicolumn() on fileexchange) allow to place
the bloc of legends anywhere on the figure, without any clipping out of the
data_bounds of the active axes.
Yes, using subplot() can be helpful, or more simply increasing by hand the
chosen margin of the axes where to put the legends:
clf, plot2d()
ax = gca(); ax.margins(2)=0.3;

Samuel
