Hello, I got Picture 1 and my goal was to create Picture 2 ideally, if not possible Picture 3. My objective is to create a legend for the red part of the plot, ideally, an arrow between the 2 limits would be awesome. Thanks
I am open to other suggestion to make a legend of that specific part. Thank you
figure
%Plot something
plot(1:10)
% Add lines
h1 = line([2 2],[1 10]);
h2 = line([5 5],[1 10]);
% Set properties of lines
set([h1 h2],'Color','k','LineWidth',2)
% Add a patch
patch([2 5 5 2],[1 1 10 10],'red')

You could consider using annotation('doublearrow'). But watch out: the coordinates by default are normalized to the figure, so you can have to go through some steps to get them relative to the axes (and then you have to re-calculate if the axes gets resized or panned.)

Did you get proper answer or code for that? Currently, I need the same arrow indication as you needed.
Can you please share information?

The File Exchange contribution I posted a link to converts coordinates to make it possible to use data coordinates instead of figure coordinates.
