How to make the legend fully shows in the plot

There is a problem when drawing the legend. As shown in the picture, the legend is set on top of the figure, but some contents miss. So how can the legend fully be shown in the figure?

And I set the legend after the final subplot was made.

Here is the code:

legend({'WC','II','CI','SD'}, 'Orientation','horizontal','location',[0.32,0.97,0.37,0.05]);

Reduce the vertical position of the legend.

legend(. . .,'location',[0.32,0.97,0.37,0.05]);
%                        [1]  [2]  [3]  [4]

The values above describe

1. the horizontal placement of the left edge
2. the vertical placement of the bottom edge
3. the width
4. the height

of the legend in normalized units (0:1). Instead of 0.97, try 0.95.

Thanks for your answer. But the legend will cover some words using this method.

Is there any method to enlarge the figure windows without changing the size and poportion of things inside, so that the legeng can be fully shown and the other things stay still?

If you created the subplot using the subplot() function, you could use the handles to the two upper subplot to move them down a bit.

In this demo, I adjust the vertical position of a subplot by 95% of its original value.

% Assuming the subplot handle is sp
sp.Position(2) = sp.Position(2)*.95;

wow, it works! Thank you so much.
