Hi,
I am trying to scan a histogram and fit a gaussian +background function by incrementing the mean of the gaussian function (by using a loop),to my histogram and then showing the result of this combined fit
hist5->Fit("fgaus", "+", "",10.5, 30);
fgaus->Draw("same");
My question is, how can I show each of the individual fits (1gaussian+backgrnd) on different histograms? I have 18 such fits so i do not want to divide the Canvas into pads.
Thanks

Just plot them using option “same” …
Do you have a small example showing what you are doing right now ?
I am doing the long way of defining 18 canvases and drawing the fitted function on different histograms. This is a summary of the code, where I have set values of other parameters but am not showing it here
c1->cd();
hist5->Draw();
c2-cd();
hist5->Draw();
for (int j=0; j<18; j++){
double mean = 11+(1*j);
double sigma = (mean/3.096)*0.07;
fgaus->FixParameter(1,mean);
fgaus->FixParameter(2,sigma);
hist5->Fit("fgaus", "", "",10.5, 30);
if (j=0){
c1->cd()
f1->Draw("same");
}
if(j=1){
c2->cd();
f1->Draw("same");
}
}
so basically I am using the if statement 18 times, even then all of the canvases only show the last fitting for mean=28 and none of the other fits.
Your macro does not show how you create the canvases. If you use TCanvas::Divide() you can do
c->cd(i) where “i” is the canvas number… no need to duplicate your code many times.
