## Plot bead intensities

### Description

Function to plot the intensities of all beads of a particular type on a strip/array.

### Usage

    plotBeadIntensities(BLData, ProbeIDs, arrays, log = FALSE,
              whatToPlot="G", ProbeCols=NULL, ylim=NULL,...)

### Arguments

`BLData` | `BeadLevelList`
`ProbeIDs` | numeric value giving the ProbeID(s) for the bead type(s) to plot
`arrays` | integer (scalar or vector) specifying the strip(s)/array(s) to plot
`log` | if TRUE log2 intensities are plotted
`whatToPlot` | character string specifying which intensities to plot. Possibilities are `"G"`, `"Gb"` for single channel data and `"G"`, `"Gb"`, `"R"` and `"Rb"` for two-colour data
`ProbeCols` | vector of colour names to assign to each bead type
`ylim` | vector providing the upper and lower bounds for the y-axis in the plotting window
`...` | further graphical parameters to `plot`

### Details

Boxplots of the specified intensities on the original or log-scale for each bead type specified by `ProbeIDs` on selected `arrays` is produced.

A vertical line separates the intensities from different strips/arrays.

### Value

A plot is displayed on the current graphical device.
