Detailed Description

Example of function called when a mouse event occurs in a pad.

When moving the mouse in the canvas, a second canvas shows the projection along X of the bin corresponding to the Y position of the mouse. The resulting histogram is fitted with a gaussian. A "dynamic" line shows the current bin position in Y. This more elaborated example can be used as a starting point to develop more powerful interactive applications exploiting CINT as a development engine.

Note that a class is used to hold on to the canvas that display the selected slice.
