Dear All,

how can we define the position of the label in the figure, when “Plots” is in use?

Best!

What do you mean by label? The `label` keyword that is the name of a series you’re plotting? If so, that appears in the `legend`, so your question might be how to control the legend position?

In that case the answer is:

> **legend**  
> Bool (show the legend?) or (x,y) tuple or Symbol (legend position)   
> Bottom left corner of legend is placed at (x,y).  
> Symbol values: `:none`; `:best`; `:inline`; `:inside`; `:legend`;  
> any valid combination of `:(outer ?)(top/bottom ?)(right/left ?)`,  
> i.e.: `:top`, `:topright`, `:outerleft`, `:outerbottomright` …  
> (note: only some may be supported in each backend)
