Two TGraphErrors in same TCanvas not being drawn properly

Hi,

I’m trying to get two TGraphErrors drawn in the same canvas, but my second TGraphErrors is not being drawn correctly. It has no markers (even though I specified them) and is just a straight line. Making the changes manually to the second graph in the TBrowser also does not work. This is all in C++11. The code I’m using is below. I have no idea why this is not working, I feel like I’m missing something very straight forward…

Current behaviour:

Expected behaviour,
gr1 with square markers of size 1.0 with no line
gr2 with circle markers of size 1.0 with no line

#include "TROOT.h"
#include "TFile.h"
#include "TTree.h"
#include "TCanvas.h"
#include "TBrowser.h"
#include "TGraphErrors.h"
#include <string>


int main() {
	string outputRootFileName = "location_to_root_file.root";
	TFile *rootFile = new TFile(outputRootFileName.c_str(), "recreate");

	TCanvas *canv = new TCanvas("canvtest", "canvtest", 800, 600);

	vector <double> x = {0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9};
	vector <double> y = {0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9};

	vector <double> x1 = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10};
	vector <double> y1 = {1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1};

	vector <double> zeros(10,0);

	TGraphErrors *gr1 = new TGraphErrors(10, &x[0], &y[0], &zeros[0], &zeros[0]);
	TGraphErrors *gr2 = new TGraphErrors(10, &x1[0], &y1[0], &zeros[0], &zeros[0]);

	gr1 -> SetMarkerStyle(21);
	gr1 -> SetMarkerSize(1.0);
	gr2 -> SetMarkerStyle(20);
	gr2 -> SetMarkerSize(1.0);


	gr1 -> Draw("AP");
	gr2 -> Draw("SAME");

	canv -> Update();
	canv -> Write();

	rootFile -> Close();
	
	return 0;
}

Found the solution.

gr2 -> Draw(“same”);

should have been

gr2 -> Draw(“p same”);

Leaving this reply for others that encounter the same problem. Topic can be closed now.

Graphs do NOT have any “SAME” drawing option.

	gr1 -> Draw("AP");
	gr2 -> Draw("P");
