makeBaseTrack {GenomeGraphs} | R Documentation

## Creates an object of class BaseTrack

### Description

Creates an object of class BaseTrack, which can represent many datasets containing a base given by a vector of positions and a corresponding vector with values for these base positions

### Usage

    makeBaseTrack(base, value, strand, segmentation, dp = NULL)

### Arguments

`base` | Numeric vector of base positions
`value` | Numeric vector with values for these base positions
`strand` | Character either + or - representing the strand
`segmentation` | Object of class Segmentation, used when segments are needed to be drawn
`dp` | Object of class DisplayPars representing the display parameters of the plot

### Value

Object of class BaseTrack

    ##-- ==>  Define data, use random,
    ##--    or do  help(data=index)  for the standard data sets.

    ## The function is currently defined as
    function (base, value, strand, segmentation, dp = NULL)
    {
        pt <- getClass("BaseTrack")@prototype
        if (is.null(dp))
            dp <- pt@dp
        if (missing(strand))
            strand <- pt@strand
        if (missing(segmentation))
            segmentation <- pt@segmentation
        if (missing(base))
            stop("Need base argument to know the base positions to plot the data on the genome")
        if (missing(value))
            stop("Need value argument")
        new("BaseTrack", base = base, value = value, strand = strand,
            dp = dp, segmentation = segmentation)
      }
