Did you see any menu bar on the top of our "Canvas" widget ?

It contains "Option" -> "Histogram Title" position to hide
histogram title.

Did you evaluate our Web home page ?

Please try first to find out whether our Web site contains a
responce for your question. Look up out Digest first, try to apply
"Search engine"

Try: http://root.cern.ch/root/Search.phtml

Select: "Title" in "RootDigest"
Select "Search"
Enjoy !

Just the same advice:

Try: http://root.cern.ch/root/Search.phtml

Select: "Save" in "RootDigest"
Select "Search"
Enjoy !

Or select from "canvas" menu bar "File" -> "Save as .C" to generate
a macro file with your cuurent canvas set.

Hope this helps.

Hope this helps,
With my regards,
