Scilab plots : Legend

To include legend into a scilab plot there is no GUI based method as in MATLAB. At least, there are none that i know of.
Instead we use the following commands after the figure has been plotted.

g = gcf();
legend(g, ['Legend entry 1','Legend entry 2'],-5);

The last argument decides the location of the legend in the plot. -5 puts it outside the plot on the top left side. Vary this argument to find other positions.

Scilab Plots : axes ranges

The plots themselves adjust the axes ranges depending on the values of the data being plotted.
However, if you need to set the ranges fixed, then use the following code after your plot command.

{code}

g = gca();
g.data_bounds = [0,0;1,1];

{\code}

where, 

g.data_bounds = [xLowerLimit, yLowerLimit: xUpperLimit,yUpperLimit];

Scilab Plots : Background

The scilab plots by default come with a grey background which is just hateful. You need to go to the figure properties in order make it into white background. To make the background white as you plot, use the following code just after your plot command.

figure; plot(...);
f = gcf();
f.background = 8;

The number 8 corresponds to white. To know what other numbers correspond to, check the sliding bar in figure properties.
