TArrow : to draw all kinds of arrows

The different arrow's formats are explained in TArrow::TArrow. The picture below gives some examples.

Once an arrow is drawn on the screen:

  • One can click on one of the edges and move this edge.
  • One can click on any other arrow part to move the entire arrow.

Function documentation

TArrow()
 Arrow default constructor.
TArrow(Double_t x1, Double_t y1, Double_t x2, Double_t y2, Float_t arrowsize = 0.05, Option_t* option = ">")
 Arrow normal constructor.

 Define an arrow between points x1,y1 and x2,y2
 the arrowsize is in percentage of the pad height
 Opening angle between the two sides of the arrow is fAngle (60 degrees)

  option = ">"      -------->
  option = "|->"    |------->
  option = "<"      <--------
  option = "<-|"    <-------|
  option = "->-"    ---->----
  option = "-<-"    ----<----
  option = "-|>-"   ---|>----
  option = "<>"     <------->
  option = "<|>"    <|-----|>  arrow defined by a triangle

  Note:
  - If FillColor == 0 draw open triangle else  draw full triangle with fillcolor
    default is filled with LineColor
  - "Begin" and "end" bars can be combined with any other options.
~TArrow()
 Arrow default destructor.
TArrow(const TArrow& arrow)
 Copy constructor.
void Copy(TObject& arrow) const
 Copy this arrow to arrow.
void Draw(Option_t* option = "")
 Draw this arrow with its current attributes.
void DrawArrow(Double_t x1, Double_t y1, Double_t x2, Double_t y2, Float_t arrowsize = 0, Option_t* option = "")
 Draw this arrow with new coordinates.

 if arrowsize is <= 0, arrowsize will be the current arrow size
 if option="", option will be the current arrow option
void Paint(Option_t* option = "")
 Paint this arrow with its current attributes.
void PaintArrow(Double_t x1, Double_t y1, Double_t x2, Double_t y2, Float_t arrowsize = 0.05, Option_t* option = ">")
 Draw this arrow
