Scaling TH1 error

ROOT
1

What is the simplest method of scaling the errors of a histogram?

A TH1 with the ‘G’ option, acoording to the docs, calculates error as the 1-sigma error on the mean (sigma/sqrt(N)).

When drawing the histogram to a canvas, what is the simplest method of drawing the 2-sigma error instead?

Simiarly, how would you achieve the same effect with the default Poisson-statistics errors of TH1?

Apologies if this has been answered in the docs, but I have been unable to find it.
