Display different stats box options on multi plot pages

ROOT
1

Hi all,
I’m makking a page with 4 histograms on it and trying to display the stats box on only one of the histograms. I’ve figured out that the following:

c1.Divide(2,2);

c1.cd(1);
gStyle->SetOptStat(10);
h1->Draw();

gStyle->SetOptStat(kFALSE);
c1.cd(2);
h2->Draw();

c1.cd(3);
h3->Draw();

c1.cd(4);
h4->Draw();c1->Print(“histo5.ps(”,“ps”); c1.Clear();

does not work, the first histogram does not display the stats box because of the subsequent gStyle->SetOptStat(kFALSE);

Is there a way to specifu the stats box style locally? I searched around for gPad routines but coundn’t find it.
thanks

Do:

[code]c1.Divide(2,2);

c1.cd(1);
h1->SetStats(10);
h1->Draw();

c1.cd(2);
h2->SetStats(0);
h2->Draw();

c1.cd(3);
h3->SetStats(0);
h3->Draw();

c1.cd(4);
h4->Draw();c1->Print(“histo5.ps(”,“ps”); c1.Clear();[/code]

Hi Rene,

I got it to work by:
gStyle->SetOptStat(10);
c1.Divide(2,2);

c1.cd(1);
h1->Draw();

c1.cd(2);
h2->SetStats(0);
h2->Draw();

c1.cd(3);
h3->SetStats(0);
h3->Draw();

c1.cd(4);
h4->Draw();c1->Print(“histo5.ps(”,“ps”); c1.Clear();

Looks like TH1::SetStats(bool) just turns on/off the global stats box.

thanks for the quick help
Ken
