Adding text to the center of a TEllipse

Hi all,

I would like to generate an ellipse with text at its center.

I am able to generate an ellipse fine and all, curious to see if there is a way to place some text at its center, like if there is some option or function that can be used to do so.

Thanks!

You know the centre, since you create the ellipse, so you can use TLatex and SetTextAlign(22):

  TLatex lat;
  lat.SetTextAlign(22);
  lat.DrawLatex(xcentre,ycentre,"mytext");   // use your x and y coordinates
