[ROOT] Fitting, errors and the HIST option

Hello Rooters,

I have a 1D histogram with errors of each bin set via TH1::SetBinError().
If I fit this histo, it is drawn with error bars only and without the
histo contours. If I use the "HIST" option to force ROOT to draw the
contours, the fitted function is not drawn. Of course, I can draw the
fitted function later to the same pad via TF1::Draw("SAME") but in this
case I cannot modify the "x" axis range afterwards either using the
pop-up menu -> SetRange (nothing happens if I do so) or dragging the range
with the mouse (in this case only the drawing range of the fitted function 
is modified but not that of the histogram). Any suggestions on how to

1) draw a histo with contours & the fitted function if the bin errors have
   been set via SetBinError()

AND

2) modify the axis ranges afterwards WITHOUT a macro/prompt line command
   i.e. dragging the axis ranges by mouse.


Thanks a lot,

Bertalan
