## autotrack

### Description

Computes r0 and r1 given track definition

### Usage

    autotrack(current.track, total.tracks, margin=0.05, r0=0, r1=1)

### Arguments

`current.track` | (numeric) The track or tracks the current plot will occupy, starting from 1. If more than one value is provided, the plot will expand from min(current.track) to max(current.track).
`total.tracks` | (numeric) The total number of tracks
`margin` | (numeric) The margin is specified as the part of a track, by default 0.05, 5 percent of the track height.
`r0` | (numeric) the original r0
`r1` | (numeric) the original r1

### Details

Small utility function to help compute r0 and r1 given the total number of tracks and the track(s) the current plot will occupy. It also takes into account a margin between tracks and original r0 and r1, so we can say something like, "Out of 5 tracks between 0 and 0.5, this plot will be at track 2", and it will return r0=0.1 and r1=0.2

### Value

A list of two numerics: r0 and r1

### Examples

    #first track out of 4
    autotrack(1, 4)

    #the same, but without margin
    autotrack(1, 4, 0)

    #first and second tracks out of 4
    autotrack(c(1,2), 4)

    #The first track out of 4, fitting the four track between 0 and 0.5
    autotrack(1, 4, r0=0, r1=0.5)
