Hi Damir, This suggestion solves my problem, but only if I call it from the interpreter. What is wrong with adding the lines: gStyle->SetTimeOffset(0); gROOT->ForceStyle(); at the beginning of my code. What about doing: h_rep_time->Draw(); // draw my histogram and then calling the two lines above? This doesn't seem to work either? To make this work, I have to open the file, draw my histogram then call the two lines, and redraw. Seems a bit odd... mike > Hi Mike, > > You should set the time offset to 0 via > gStyle->SetTimeOffset(0); > > Time offset is here to be able to plot small time scales (seconds) > beginning at any time (9 digit seconds for UTC) > > Cheers > > Damir > > ===================================================================== > | Damir Buskulic | Universite de Savoie/LAPP | > | | Chemin de Bellevue, B.P. 110 | > | Tel : +33 (0)450091600 | F-74941 Annecy-le-Vieux Cedex | > | e-mail: buskulic@lapp.in2p3.fr | FRANCE | > ===================================================================== > mailto:buskulic@lapp.in2p3.fr > > On Tue, 26 Nov 2002, Mike Kordosky wrote: > > > Hi, > > > > I'm making a plot with time on the horizontal axis.
