Hi, I have the following problems with setting the linewidth of histograms when I print them to an eps and later print the eps on the printer (ROOT 3.02/07): 1) On the screen and printout the linewidth of the histogram and of the line in the legend are completely different. The one in the legend is much bigger. The example below isllustrates this. 2) The line width on the printout depends on the size of the pad in which I plot the histogram. If I change the height from 5. to 4.5 cm in the example below than the readable line of width 2 becomes a hairline in the printout. Could you please give me a hint how I can better control the line width in the printout (e.g. independent of the pad size) and how I can get the same line width in the histogram and legend. Best Regards, Hannes Sakulin. void test_lw() { gStyle->SetPaperSize(16.5, 5.); TCanvas *cv_ovl= new TCanvas("cv_ovl","cv_ovl",1); cv_ovl->Size(16.5,5.); // change pad height here cv_ovl->cd(); gPad->SetFillColor(0); gPad->SetBorderSize(0); gPad->SetBorderMode(0); gPad->SetGrid(1,1); gPad->SetTicks(1,0); gPad->Draw(); gPad->Divide(2,1); gPad->cd(1); gStyle->SetOptStat(0); gPad->SetLeftMargin(0.18); gPad->SetRightMargin(0.07); gPad->SetBorderSize(0); TH1F* hGMT = new TH1F("xx","xx",10,0,10); hGMT->Fill(3.,70.); hGMT->Fill(4.,80.); hGMT->Fill(5.,90.); TH1F* hGMT1 = new TH1F("yy","yy",10,0,10); hGMT1->Fill(3.,72.); hGMT1->Fill(4.,78.); hGMT1->Fill(5.,93.); hGMT->SetMaximum(110.); hGMT->SetMinimum(60.); hGMT->SetLabelSize(0.07,"x"); hGMT->SetLabelSize(0.07,"y"); hGMT->SetLabelOffset(-0.005,"x"); hGMT->SetTitle(""); hGMT->GetXaxis()->SetTitleSize(0.07); hGMT->GetXaxis()->SetTitleOffset(0.5); hGMT->GetYaxis()->SetTitleSize(0.07); hGMT->SetXTitle("#eta_{gen} "); hGMT->SetYTitle("Efficiency (%) "); hGMT->SetLineColor(1); hGMT->SetLineWidth(3); hGMT->DrawCopy(); hGMT1->SetLineColor(1); hGMT1->SetLineWidth(2); hGMT1->DrawCopy("SAME"); TLegend* lab = new TLegend(0.64,0.16,0.91,0.42); lab->SetFillColor(0); lab->AddEntry(hGMT,"test test","L"); lab->AddEntry(hGMT1,"test test","L"); lab->Draw(); } ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hannes Sakulin CERN / EP Phone: +41 22 767 7372 CH-1211 Geneva 23, Switzerland Fax: +41 22 767 8940 E-mail: Hannes.Sakulin@cern.ch ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
