Multiple colours in GenomeGraphs?

Hi all,

I have just started using the GenomeGraphs package, which I think is a
really good piece of software :)

I am using the package to plot expression values across a genomic
region. However, it seems to plot all points on the same "track" in the
same colour? I was wondering if it is possible to use different colours
to highlight particular probes I am interesting in, (or use different
plotting characters). I thought something like:

dp=DisplayPars(color=c("red","blue")) might work, but it just produced
one colour. Apologies if there is already the ability to do this, but I
didn't see anything so far.

Many thanks,

Mark

Re: Multiple colours in GenomeGraphs?

Hi Mark,

Colors are handled somewhat differently at this point depending on  
what class you are in (i.e. BaseTrack, GenericArray).

dp1 = DisplayPars(color = c(rep("blue", 1), rep("red", 1)))
dp2 = DisplayPars(color = c(rep("blue", 500), rep("red", 500)))

gdPlot(new("BaseTrack", base = rpois(1000, 1), value =  
exp(rnorm(1000)), dp = dp1))
gdPlot(new("BaseTrack", base = rpois(1000, 1), value =  
exp(rnorm(1000)), dp = dp2))

For the generic array:

gdPlot(new("GenericArray", probeStart = rpois(1000, 1), intensity =  
matrix(exp(rnorm(2000)), ncol = 2), dp = dp1))

Note: here are coloring is based on which column it is. So if I use my  
dp2 in this case I don't really get anything sensible. In this case  
colors pertain to columns and not individual points. Please let me  
know what class your using and I can probably add the capability to do  
what you want. Features like this we definitely want to support, we  
just haven't got around to ironing them out.

thanks, jim
