Yannick,
All the Root classes are documented. see the list of classes at:
   http://root.cern.ch/root/html/ClassIndex.html
For example, for TTree, go to:
   http://root.cern.ch/root/html/TTree.html
In this URL, you can look at TTree::Draw at:
   http://root.cern.ch/root/html/src/TTree.cxx.html#TTree:Draw
I suggest you read the URLS:
   http://root.cern.ch/root/HowtoWriteTree.html
   http://root.cern.ch/root/HowtoReadTree.html

The list of Drawing options is the same as in TH1::Draw
   http://root.cern.ch/root/html/TH1.html#TH1:Draw

You can modify the color palette via TStyle::SetPalette
See URLs:
   http://root.cern.ch/root/HowtoStyle.html
   http://root.cern.ch/root/html/TStyle.html#TStyle:SetPalette


Concerning your problem with the macro ntuple1, please tell me
which version you started from (binary, source).
Which version of the compiler, Linux, etc.
