GetMainPainter(divid) in JSROOT v5.9->v6

Newbie

Hello,

I am a beginner in javascript and with jsroot. Half a year ago I did some coding with jsroot v5.9. But now that new version is out I am having some troubles with the basics.

The problem:
In 5.9 version I used the following code to get a histogram from a plot: var obj = JSROOT.GetMainPainter(divid).draw_object.
But in the new version 6.0 this was changed and I can’t make it work.

I tried using this code var dummy = JSROOT.Painter.getElementMainPainter(divid) but it just returns null.

I also tried doing it as it is written in the source code like this:

let tmp = JSROOT.ObjectPainter(divid);
var dummy = tmp.getMainPainter(True);

Here I get a object for the tmp but then tmp.getMainPainter gives just null.

I tried also function tmp.getObject() but it returns undefined.

Any help will very much be appreciated.

Cheers.

Hi Andrej,

I need complete code to identify problem.
getElementMainPainter function should be working - it is used in different places of JSROOT itself.
May be you do not wait for JSROOT.draw completion?
It now returns Promise and one should wait until it is resolved.

Maybe that is the problem, not waiting to draw. Because in previous verison I used callback.

I just tried to make it like this but the output is still null:

function initSliders(divid){
    fun1(divid);
    fun2(divid);
    var obj = JSROOT.Painter.getElementMainPainter(divid);
    .
    .
}
JSROOT.draw(divid, jsonobj, "hist").then(initSliders(divid), console.log("draw failed"));

I am sorry for not providing the whole code, but it is located in a bigger project.

Hi Andrej,

You have mistake, should be:

JSROOT.draw(divid, jsonobj, "hist").then(() => initSliders(divid), () => console.log("draw failed"));
