Hi everybody, firstable thanks for answering in my previous post even if, as you let me noticed, I could have solved the problem by myself having a look at the basics of mathematica (even if the first approach is quite difficult!).
Now I'm experimenting troubles with ShowLegend, and I tried hard to make it work but the documentation is terrible...i tried to copy an example that DH posted in a previous discussion:

ShowLegend[g, {{{Red, "Vt=15Knots"}, {Blue, "Vt=10Knots"}, {Green, 
    "Vt=14Knots"}, {Yellow, "Vt=6Knots"}}}, LegendPosition -> {1, 1}]

where g is the result of

g = Show[g6, g10, g14, g16]

a Show command over four previous plotted graphics (it works without problems).

All I get back from the code I posted above is the following output:

ShowLegend[ /*here comes a little figure representing g*/,
{{{RGBColor[1, 0, 0], "Vt=15Knots"}, {RGBColor[0, 0, 1], 
    "Vt=10Knots"}, {RGBColor[0, 1, 0], 
    "Vt=14Knots"}, {RGBColor[1, 1, 0], "Vt=6Knots"}}}, 
 LegendPosition -> {1, 1}]

while I should have, I guess, my graphic g back with the legend on it...any idea of what I'm missing?
