Re: Some things sync'd with gStyle, others not?

Hi Cedric,

As far as I can see, gStyle is meant to make global changes to the way things are drawn, like the general background colour or the font used for text. It will always affect all objects, not just the ones which haven't been drawn yet.

Drawable objects in ROOT all inherit from TAtt* classes, like TAttLine, TAttFill and TAttText, which contain methods for setting various properties. Whenever I need to draw things with specific attributes, I usually end up creating functions which in turn create my drawable objects and set the appropriate attributes.

Because the reach and effect of gStyle on different objects is not always obvious, some experimentation will probably be needed.

Greetings, Roel
