Fixed Color scale for multiple 2-d histograms

[qmalik]

_Hello Everyone

I have a situation where I want to plot multiple 2-d histograms and I want to set same colour scale for all the histograms. That means there sould be same colour for same number of entries like if it is red colour for 100 entries (max 100 entries) in one histogram, there should be same colour (red) for 100 entries ( a max of 500 entries) in the other histogram. Anyone has any hits how to do that using colour paletts or any other solution ?

Please read tips for efficient and successful posting and posting code

Hi, I got into trouble while plotting two (very different) 2D histograms on the same canvas. This can be illustrated/reproduced with the following. Whenever the two histograms have compatible statistics, there is no issue as shown here: [image] (this plot can be reproduced with multipaletteForVeryDifferentDistributions.cxx, just do root -l multipaletteForVeryDifferentDistributions.cxx ) But when I want these histograms to have very different statistics, for example, by setting statsForTh…
