SetOptStat for TPaveStats

Evolution Proposals, Apps & Ideas
1

Hi,

being an avid fan of TStyle::SetOptStat(Option_t * stat) (not to be confused with TStyle::SetOptStat(Int_t mode = 1)), I noticed that for the TPaveStats objects only a TPaveStats::SetOptStat(Int_t stat = 1) member function exists. Any chance we can get a similar function that takes Option_t as an input for TPaveStats in the future releases of ROOT?

Thanks!

Thank you for your suggestion. I suppose that, initially, setting the stats fields using letters was implemented only at the style level, as it serves as a high-level setting function. In contrast, the implementation for TPaveStats is specific to lower-level primitives, which are presumably used less frequently. That said, I agree that, in principle, there is no reason not to have this functionality available at the lower level as well.
