Class Description

   A Canvas is an area mapped to a window directly under
   the control of the display manager.
   A ROOT session may have several canvases open at any given time.

   A Canvas may be subdivided into independent graphical areas: the PADs
   A canvas has a default pad which has the name of the canvas itself.
   An example of a Canvas layout is sketched in the picture below.

   This canvas contains two pads named P1 and P2.
   Both Canvas, P1 and P2 can be moved, grown, shrinked using the
   normal rules of the Display manager.
   A copy of a real canvas with 4 pads is shown in the picture below.

/*

*/


  Once objects have been drawn in a canvas, they can be edited/moved
  by pointing directly to them. The cursor shape is changed
  to suggest the type of action that one can do on this object.
  Clicking with the right mouse button on an object pops-up
  a contextmenu with a complete list of actions possible on this object.

  A graphical editor may be started from the canvas "Edit" menu.
  Select the "Editor" item. This will show the following editor menu.

/*

*/

  For example, to draw a new TText primitive, select the option Text,
  then click at the position where you want to draw the text. Type <CR>
  when you have finished typing the string.

  A canvas may be automatically divided into pads via TPad::Divide.

  if set = 1 (default) graphics objects are moved in opaque mode
         = 0 only the outline of objects is drawn when moving them
  The option opaque produces the best effect. It requires however a
  a reasonably fast workstation or response time.

 If ww and/or wh are greater than the current canvas window
 a scroll bar is automatically generated.
 Use this function to zoom in a canvas and naviguate via
 the scroll bars.

void Size(Float_t xsize, Float_t ysize)
*-*-*-*-*-*-*Set the canvas scale in centimeters*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
*-*          ===================================
  This information is used by PostScript to set the page size.
  xsize  = size of the canvas in centimeters along X
  ysize  = size of the canvas in centimeters along Y
   if xsize and ysize are not equal to 0, then the scale factors will
   be computed to keep the ratio ysize/xsize independently of the canvas
   size (parts of the physical canvas will be unused).

   if xsize = 0 and ysize is not zero, then xsize will be computed
      to fit to the current canvas scale. If the canvas is resized,
      a new value for xsize will be recomputed. In this case the aspect
      ratio is not preserved.

   if both xsize = 0 and ysize = 0, then the scaling is automatic.
   the largest dimension will be allocated a size of 20 centimeters.


void Streamer(TBuffer &b)
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*Stream a class object*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
*-*              =========================================
