Hi, Actually this is not the maximum value of the histogram I want, but the maximum value of the Y axis on the pad, which is about h->GetMaximum() + 10%. Is there something to get this value precisely? Or: how to put an second X axis exactly on top on the plot? TGaxis constructor asks for xmin, ymin, xmax, ymax values... I can get the xmin, xmax values from h->GetXaxis()->GetXmin() and GetXmax(), but I can't for the ymin,ymax values...
