LEGENDTITLE adds a title inside the legend axes.
LEGENDTITLE(LEGH,TITLESTR) adds the title TITLESTR to the legend LEGH
LEGENDTITLE(TITLESTR) adds the title to the current legend in the current axes.
LEGENDTITLE(...,Param,Val) sets the specified properties for the text object.
H = LEGENDTITLE(...) returns the handle for the text object used to create the title string.
By default, the legend title uses the same font as the legend, but with a bold font weight.

Example:

plot(rand(10,5))
legh = legend('Random 1','Random 2','Random 3','Random 4','Random 5');
legendtitle(legh,'Random Data')
