Re: [ROOT] Axis labels

Rene,

I got 3.02.01 now but I wonder how TAxis and TGaxis are related. From my 
THF1 histogram I can get the x axis of type TAxis but I doesn't inherit 
from TGaxis. So I guess TGaxis is referenced by TAxis interally.

TGaxis::SetMaxDigits being static, I figured it might be a a global 
switch and called it from within the interpreter. But when I plot my 
histogram afterwards it still displays the exponential separately. It 
_is_ intended for micros, too, not just Megas, isn't it? Or is my way of 
using SetMaxDigits off?

Thanks,
Sven
