Why does the legend in my figure disappear when I use HGSAVE and HGLOAD to save and reload the figure in MATLAB 7.0 (R14)?

I type the following commands at the MATLAB command prompt:

plot([0 1],[5 1]);

legend('Test Plot')

legend boxoff

hgsave('test')

hgload('test')

The loaded figure no longer contains the legend that was in the original figure.

This bug has been fixed in Release 14 Service Pack 3 (R14SP3). For previous product releases, read below for any possible workarounds:

We have verified that there is a bug in MATLAB 7.0 (R14) in the way that the HGSAVE and HGLOAD functions handle legends.

There are no known workarounds.
