Hi Hongquan,
If you want to see in the same canvas both the zoomed and unzoomed
histogram h,
proceed as follow:
 - h.Draw(); // draw histogram in the canvas
 - create a new pad in this canvas (editor or command)
 - cd to this new pad. (click with middle mouse button in the new pad)
 - h.DrawCopy(); // draw a copy of h in the new pad

Now, you can zoom independently the histogram in both pads.
