Interesting. Thanks for the idea.

I tried it on the canvas of my compiled program and wasn't able to select the stats object. It only selected the histogram. However, I was able to do it the interactive way with the hsimple example.

One can "cheat", of course, using the editor to accomplish what you want and then save it as a macro. I did that and looked at the generated code: it creates ptstats externally, changes what is necessary, and then links it to the histogram object. This for sure allows you to do anything you want with the statistics. But is there a simpler way?

Thanks,

Emanuel
