Sorry no doc or html yet. This is next on the TODO list. On how to make
dialogs have a look at the guitest.cxx program and for example
TRootDialog (http://root.cern.ch/root/html/src/TRootDialog.cxx.html)
which is the dialog box that is dynamically created when a method that
requires arguments is executed via a context popup menu.

A next version will provide hooks to the menu bar so that items can be
changed, added, deleted, etc.

You could do something like:
TCanvas c("c")
c.SetCanvas(2000, 400) // makes the canvas 2000x400 pixels without
// changing window size, also turns off the
// autofit option in the View menu so when
// you resize the window it stays at 2000x400
histo.Draw()
Cheers, Fons.
