Pointer of drawing TArc object

ROOT
1

Hi,

I like that some root objects, like TLine or TLatex, when are drawn with DrawLatex(…) or DrawLine(…),
they return the pointer to the drawn object,
however now similarly I want to get of the pointer of drawn TArc, but the method DrawArc is void.
Is there a particular reason not having it to return the address to the drawn TArc object?

I forward this question to @couet, our graphics expert, so that he answers when he can, thanks!

Yes, your remark makes perfect sense. That should be uniform.
Can you open a GitHub issue with this ? That will be the occasion to check all the DrawXXX methods and even add the missing ones.
Thanks.
