Dear rooters, the interactive analysis experiences with root up to now show that the commands are longer to type than in PAW, however one has the full C++ language to program some analysis tasks as a macro. This is nice, but to get plots I make heavy use of interactive manipulations via the editor. THIS is my Problem : Root (version 2.00/03 as well as 1.03) crashes very often. Okay one can live with that for some time. Now I tried to save the canvas as a C++ macro. The result is, that some of the manipulations of the plot are not saved at all. So saving of the work NOT ONLY as postscript, what I normaly do with PAW macros seems to be difficult with root. (Do I have to program the whole macro by hand?) What I am currently doing is similar to the "Example of a Graph with error bars" from the tutorials. What is not saved is : - any manipulations concernig the axis of the plot (Ndivisions, title, TitleOffset) - any "free" text from the editor in the plot. Am I missing something ? If some C++ rules forbid to save a canvas in its interactively styled outline, I can see some problems of the further use of root for analysis tasks. Thanks in advance for your help, Greetings Martin Braeuer /----------------------------------------------------------------\ | Martin Braeuer | | DESY -F15- (bldg. 66 r. 11) MPI fuer Kernphysik | | Notkestrasse 85 Saupfercheckweg 1, Postf. 103980 | | 22603 Hamburg 69029 Heidelberg | | braeuer@desy.de braeuer@eu1.mpi-hd.mpg.de | | tel.: +49 40 8998 4680 tel.: +49 6221 516 506 | | +49 171 4580494 | \----------------------------------------------------------------/
