Dear ROOT team, I am using the new ROOT version 4.00/02 with intel's icc 8.0 compiler, on Gentoo 1.2 linux distribution. Using the Event executable from $ROOTSYS/test, I created an Event.root file. I then started a ROOT session and loaded the Event.root file and started the a TreeViewer session (T->StartViewer()). I then made a plot of fNvertex:fNseg and using the TCanvas Editor I made a graphical cut and renamed it cut1. Then I made the same plot again with cut1 listed in the scissor box, and the proper plot was displayed. I then made the same plot again and got the error *ERROR 30 : Bad numerical expression : "cut1" In earlier versions all graphical cuts were persistant, but it seems they are deleted now after a single plot. Is this intended? Thanks Kerry Below is the full ROOT session commands bash-2.05b# root ******************************************* * * * W E L C O M E to R O O T * * * * Version 4.00/02 21 February 2004 * * * * You are welcome to visit our Web site * * http://root.cern.ch * * * ******************************************* FreeType Engine v2.1.3 used to render TrueType fonts.
