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
