Hi Franz, A short example Rene Brun void manyp() { TCanvas *c1 = new TCanvas("c1"); TMarker *m; TRandom r; for (Int_t i=0;i<10000;i++) { Double_t x = r.Gaus(0.5,0.1); Double_t y = r.Gaus(0.5,0.1); m = new TMarker(x,y,2); m->Draw(); //add to the pad structure m->Paint(); //paint on the pixmap if (i%30 == 0) c1->Flush(); //flush the pixmap } } On Tue, 14 May 2002, Franz [ISO-8859-1] Pröbst wrote: > Hi, > > I am using root to make a number of simple online displays for a DAQ. > The displays are shown as pads in a single canvas.
