Hi ! I am a new user of Julia and I have some issues to show legends on my plots :

f = Figure()  
lines(f[1,1],time\_test,data[1,:], label=[“Time 1”], linewidth=3)

the legend of the curve should appear, right ?  
Thanks,  
NaSi

You should specify which plotting package you are using. From your code I guess Makie, in which case you need `axislegend()`

Ah yes you’re right 😅 Sorry, I have started yesterday using Julia and I am kind of lost with packages

Thanks
