I can not understand why Plot Browser was taken away in latest Matlab... I use Plot Browser all of the time! Having to find and click the particular line I want in a plot with a lot of lines is way less convenient than just selecting it in the Plot Browser. Also, being able to quickly hide/show multiple lines at once with the plot browser was so helpful in a lot of cases. Please bring Plot Browser back!!!! Please reply with support for this if you feel the same as I do!

Please use Plot Inspector instead. Here is how.
Thanks for this, I understand that property inspector is still available, but it is not functionally equivalent. I have plots with many more lines on it that the simple example above. Finding and selecting the line I want to select was easy in Plot Browser, but is impossible without it. Changing the hide/show status on many lines at once was easy with Plot Browser, but is cumbersome at best without it.
I've suggested a workaround that might satisfy some of the missing functionality from the Plot Browser with the legend instead in this post. There are limitatoins to that workaround and I acknowledge isn't going to check all the boxes but I am interested if there is additoinal functionality Legend could provide in this area.
I understand what you mean now. Thanks.
