Problem with plotting

I have two problems with plotting.
1. I was trying to plot a graphics of 'c vs X' for different 't'(t1,t2,t3 etc) in the same graph using GUI. Note that, lines for different t should be plotted one by one (i.e after plot of line 1 (t1), it will wait for input of t2 to plot line 2 and so on).Now I want to add legends for each line (say, t1, t2, t3 etc). How can I do that?
2. When I run the program for first line(t1) it is fine but for second plot (t2) the GUI showed plot axes with label and title. How can I get rid off it?
Thanks in advance !
My code is:
function varargout = gui_trail(varargin)
% GUI_TRAIL MATLAB code for gui_trail.fig
% GUI_TRAIL, by itself, creates a new GUI_TRAIL or raises the existing
% singleton*.
%
% H = GUI_TRAIL returns the handle to a new GUI_TRAIL or the handle to
% the existing singleton*.
%
% GUI_TRAIL('CALLBACK',hObject,eventData,handles,...) calls the local
% function named CALLBACK in GUI_TRAIL.M with the given input arguments.
%
% GUI_TRAIL('Property','Value',...) creates a new GUI_TRAIL or raises the
% existing singleton*. Starting from the left, property value pairs are
% applied to the GUI before gui_trail_OpeningFcn gets called. An
% unrecognized property name or invalid value makes property application
% stop. All inputs are passed to gui_trail_OpeningFcn via varargin.
%
% *See GUI Options on GUIDE's Tools menu. Choose "GUI allows only one
% instance to run (singleton)".

For the first question, use the LEGEND command.
L = length(get(axeshandle,'children'));
legend([repmat('t',L,1),sprintf('%i',1:L).']))
For the second question, you are calling the TITLE function and YLABEL etc, why do you call them if you do not want those things?
