svmtrain plot design

Hello community,
i have calculated the support vector machines with "svmtrain".Everything works well but i have a problem with the design of my plot.If i change the marker, then there is just a overlay above the original markers and the legend entry is not changed to the new marker design.Can anybody give me a solution for my problem?

a = [1;4;3;2;4;5;6;7;9;3];
b = [3;1;3;1;5;6;3;7;8;1];
c = [1;3;5;2;5;6;6;8;9;2];
d = [2;4;6;3;2;6;4;8;6;7];

x(1:10,1)=a;
x(11:20,1)=b;
x(1:10,2)=c;
x(11:20,2)=d;

x=double(x);

col = [0 0 0];
cold = [0.5 0.5 0.5];

svmStruct=svmtrain(x,textdata,'showplot',true);
hold on
plot (a,c,'.','color',col,'MarkerSize',5,'MarkerEdgeColor',col,'MarkerFaceColor',col);
hold on
plot (b,d,'.','color',cold,'MarkerEdgeColor',cold,'MarkerFaceColor',cold);
hold on legend ('change','no-change');
grid on

Thank you and best regards, Paul

I think you need to play around with the visibility of the legend and
figures. Something like this (may not work completely, but something
like it should):

% Set up your data, then:
svmStruct=svmtrain(x,textdata,'showplot',true);
set(svmStruct.FigureHandles{2},'Visible','off') % gets rid of data point
markers
legend_handle = legend;
set(legend_handle,'Visible','off') % gets rid of legend
hold on
% Do your plotting and stuff here, including your legend statement,
without any other hold statements
hold off

Hello,
I tried the visibility options but this had not led to success.I found a solution for my own.The plot command of the "svmtrain"-file need access to the "svmplotdata" and and I've edited this file and thereby reset the default settings.
