3D Histogram - Labeling the Color Bar

Newbie

Hi,

I’ve enclosed a photo of the 3D histogram. How do I label the colored bar?

Thank you so much!

I don’t think there’s an automatic way in this case, but you can add your own text on the canvas and place it next to the scale. For instance, you could add another TPaveLabel, if you want it in a box. For just text you can use TLatex; something like:

  TLatex *tex = new TLatex(0.85,0.05,"title");
  tex->SetNDC(1);
  tex->SetTextFont(42);
  tex->Draw();

after drawing the histogram.

Try:

   TH3F *hist = new TH3F("glvoxel", "OT;Position (mm);;;Optical Transmittane Deviance", size, 0., size, 1, 0., 20., 1, 0., 20.);

Thank you!
@couet Also, do you all know how to make the 3D histogram opaque?

I tried setting the transparency through the color palette, but that didn’t work.

 gStyle->SetPalette(1,0,1);

I think this representation is also transparent. @tpochep may confirm .
