Re: How to get coordinate information of a histogram

Dear Valery

The class defination "test.h" and its implementation "test.c" is
followed. The running is like

* aa = new test();
* aa->Draw();

In the code, the implentation "Draw()" is like:

void test::Draw()
{
fpx->Draw(); //fpx is a TH1 object
}

When running like:

aa = new test();
aa->Draw();

It will produce a Canvas with a histogram in it. After selecting the
option "Event Status" in TCanvas, I can find three objects:

c1 --> default Canvas
fpx -->the TH1 object.
TFrame --> Frame that contains the "fpx"

But can not find "aa". Deleting "aa" will have no effect on the existing
TCanvas and Histograms. It seems to say that "aa" is not in the Canvas.

Sincerely yours

Xie
