+## Example commands for cf.PlotVariables1D workflow:
+
+### Local (not recommended for full datasets):
+```
+law run cf.PlotVariables1D --version [version name] --datasets 'data*',tt_fh_powheg,'qcd*' --variables jet6_pt
+```
+
+### HTCondor:
+```
+law run cf.PlotVariables1D --version [version name] --datasets 'data*',tt_fh_powheg,'qcd*' --variables jet6_pt 
+--cf.MergeHistograms-{workflow=htcondor,htcondor-memory=3000} --cf.ReduceEvents-{workflow=htcondor,htcondor-memory=3000}
+```
+
+### Trigger efficiency plots (bin_sel variable dictates the trigger choice):
+```
+law run cf.PlotVariables1D --version [version name] --datasets data_jetht_d,data_jetht_e,data_jetht_f,tt_fh_powheg --variables jet6_pt-ht1-trig_bits 
+--selector trigger_eff --producers example,trigger_prod --plot-function alljets.plotting.trigger_eff_plot_procs_binned.plot_efficiencies 
+--cf.MergeHistograms-{workflow=htcondor,htcondor-memory=3000} --cf.ReduceEvents-{workflow=htcondor,htcondor-memory=3000} 
+--general-settings "bin_sel=1"
+```
