Add re-binning functionality

[dnwerner]

The extension is an awesome tool to improve productivity.

A few features from the TBrowser that are helpful are still missing: One of these is the option to re-bin the viewed histograms (analogous to the Re-bin function in the TBrowser, just suming up existing bins).

Hey @dnwerner!

First of all, thanks for your kind words and for openning the issues! And also sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

Regarding this issue, it's important to note that ROOT File Viewer leverages the JavaScript ROOT package to do all the heavy lifting, and after taking a look I don't think it supports rebinning histograms 😕 I could be wrong though, maybe @linev can enlighten us!

[linev]

Yes, histograms rebinning has to be implemented in JSROOT directly. You could open issue on project https://github.com/root-project/jsroot webpage It should be not that difficult - there much complex functions like: https://root.cern/js/latest/examples.htm#th2_projx1

I've just opened https://github.com/root-project/jsroot/issues/210 @linev, thanks for the very quick reply!

[AlbertoPdRF]

Please note that although https://github.com/root-project/jsroot/issues/210 has already been addressed (albeit not released yet) this issue is still blocked by #6

One can call rebin via sub-menu, but also I will try to find better solution than using prompt

[AlbertoPdRF]

Oh, that's very nice! I'll close the issue when the re-binning functionality is included in a JSROOT release, thanks for letting me know!

[linev]

Now in jsroot 6.1.0 jquery dialog is used instead of prompt

[AlbertoPdRF]

Yep, I'm already publishing v0.3.0 with all the changes, thanks for the heads up! :slightly_smiling_face:
