Use case:

• Reco: might be unfilled, MC Truth: might be a bar style

Yes, we can add that.

@sophiemiddleton what do you think?

# Define custom styles
styles = {
    "All": {
        "histtype": "bar",      # Filled bars 
        "alpha": 0.3,           # Semi-transparent
        "color": "blue"        # Override style file colour
    },
    "Tracker entrance": {
        "histtype": "step",     # Unfilled outline for "reco-like" data
        "linewidth": 2,         # Thicker line
        "color": "red"          # Override style file colour
    }
}

plotter.plot_1D_overlay(
    {
        "All" : time_all_flat,
        "Tracker entrance" : time_flat,
    },
    styles=styles, # Add styles parameter
    nbins=100,
    xmin=450,
    xmax=1695,
    xlabel="Time [ns]",
    ylabel="Norm. track segments",
    out_path="h1o_time_fancy.png",
    norm_by_area=True
)
