TMVA and efficiency scan with rectangular optimisation

Dear Rooters,
I'm using the TMVA package for a rectangular optimization. Following the example

   TMVAnalysis.C

I create TMVA::Factory *factory
and then I train it with

   factory->BookMethod( TMVA::Types::kCuts, "Cuts",                           

"!H:!V:FitMethod=MC:EffSel:SampleSize=200000:VarProp=FSmart" );

then

   factory->TrainAllMethods();

In this way I get a file
weights/TMVAnalysis_Cuts.weights.txt
with the optimised selections.

However the optimisation has been performed with steps in signal efficiency of 0.01.
Is it possible to have an efficiency scan with a different step (i.e. 0.005) and in a fixed efficiency range (for example with signal efficiency between 0. and 0.1)?
