How do you make 2 markers share the same label in MatLab Legend?

I am trying to make two markers share the same legend title. In this case I have open and closed symbols each representing different conditions but at the same temperature (see photo). From what I gather, there is no property that allows this and so a custom legend must be made. Has anyone encountered this before or come up with a custom legend function?

Hi HaAgain,
I see that you have two symbols for each set of temperature data that you would like to have a common legend label. Assuming in your graph you have 10 plots (5 temperature points x 2 symbols per point), when you invoke the "legend" function on your plot, you would receive 10 different labels. In this case, the only possibility is to create 10 labels, specified, perhaps, as the following:
773K, open
823K, open
....
773K, closed
823K, closed
...
This legend might make the plots more descriptive and to-the-point.
Thanks,
David
