qaProcess.BoundaryPlot {flowQ} | R Documentation

## Creates a QA process for comparison of the percentage of boundary events for the specified parameters across multiple samples

### Description

This function takes a list of `flowSet` as input and creates all necessary output for a 'BoundaryPlot' type QA process. Objects created by this function can be laid out as HTML using `writeQAReport`.

### Usage

     qaProcess.BoundaryPlot(flowList,dyes=NULL,
                              outdir="QAReport",cutoff=3,
                              det.dimensions=c(400,400),pdf=FALSE,...)

### Arguments

`flowList` | A list of `flowSet`
`dyes` | Flow parameters to be compared across multiple samples. If set to NULL, all parameters that are duplicated across the list of `flowSet` are identified and compared.
`outdir` | The directory to which the graphical output is to be saved. If multiple QA processes are to be combined, make sure to use the same directory every time.
`cutoff` | A numeric value for the percentage of boundary events that is used by the process to identify samples that failed the QA process
`det.dimensions` | the dimensions of each image generated by the QA process.
`pdf` | boolen value determinining if pdf files or jpeg images will be produced by the QA process
`...` | Further arguments.

### Details

QA processes of type 'BoundaryPlot' helps identify samples that have a large number of boundary events that must be removed by further gating before detailed analysis of the data.

For more details on how to layout `qaProcess` objects to HTML, see `writeQAReport` and `qaReport`.

### Value

An object of class `qaProcess`.
