How can I plot multiple curves in one figure using "SLM - Shape Language Modeling"?

I'm trying to plot at least two curves into the same figure with SLM. I'm totally new to matlab, so I need a little help with this. I'm into a for-loop, in every loop two sets of data points are plotted and every set needs its own fitting curve. I just tried something like this, but it didn't work.

for i = 2:2:(size(num,2)/2)    
    slm = slmengine(Spalte{1},Spalte{i},'plot','on','knots',10,'increasing','on', ...
'leftslope',0,'rightslope',0);    
    slm1 = slmengine(Spalte{1},Spalte{i+6},'plot','on','knots',10,'increasing','on', ...
'leftslope',0,'rightslope',0);    
    figure
    p = plotslm(slm);
    hold on
    p1 = plotslm(slm1);
end

Would be great if anyone could help!

Thanks and cheers,

Even if we had SLM and could run your code, there's no certainty we'd get the same outcome as you. Explain what "didn't work" means and what you're seeing that you don't like.

The plot commands look like they should work to me, assuming slm and slm1 were correctly generated.

When I run the code, I get five single windows. The first and the second are generated from the slm = slmengine(...) lines, both with the related curves. The third one is just an empty figure, because I use the command "figure" I guess. The fourth and fifth windows look exactly like the first and the second, generated from the "plotslm"-commands. So I guess there's no need to use the figure-command, because slmengine and plotslm just create figures.

If you want to control which figure window the plot is made in, e.g, if you have a prior figure handle, H, you could try,

H=figure; hold on

for i = 2:2:(size(num,2)/2)    
    slm = slmengine(Spalte{1},Spalte{i},'plot','on','knots',10,'increasing','on', ...
'leftslope',0,'rightslope',0);    
    slm1 = slmengine(Spalte{1},Spalte{i+6},'plot','on','knots',10,'increasing','on', ...
'leftslope',0,'rightslope',0);    

      figure(H);    
        plotslm(slm);
      figure(H)
        plotslm(slm1);

end
