NAME

Bio::Graphics::Glyph::stackedplot - The stackedplot glyph

SYNOPSIS

See L<Bio::Graphics::Panel> and L<Bio::Graphics::Glyph>.

DESCRIPTION

The stackedplot glyph can be used to draw quantitative feature data using a stacked column plot. It differs from the xyplot glyph in that the plot applies to a single top level feature, not a group of subfeatures. The data to be graphed is derived from an attribute called "data_series."

The data to be graphed is represented as a list of arrays:

(
[1, 2, 8],
[6, 1, 1],
[10,8, 0],
[1, 1, 1],
)

Each array is a column in the stacked plot. Its values become the subdivisions of the column. In this example, there are four columns, each of which has three subdivisions.

You can add labels to the columns and change the colors of the subdivisions.

To assign data to a feature, you can add a "series" tag:

 $snp1    = Bio::SeqFeature::Generic ->new (-start     => 500,-end=>501,
			                    -display_name =>'example',
					    -tag=> { series => [
 							     [10,20,30],
 							     [30,30,0],
 							     [5,45,10],
 							     [5,45,10],
 							     [5,45,10],
 							     [50,0,50],
 							    ],
						     }
					       );

Note that the series tag must consist of an array of arrays.

If you are using a gff3 representation, you can load a database with data that looks like this:

chr1 test feature 1 1000 . . . series=10 20 30;series=30 30 0;series=5 45 10...

If you are using a gff2 representation, you can load a database with data that looks like this:

chr1 test feature 1 1000 . . . series 10 20 30; series 30 30 0 series 5 45 10...

Or you can pass a callback to the -series option:

 $panel->add_track(\@data,
		  -glyph     => 'stackedplot',
                  -series       => sub {
                                  my $feature = shift;
                             return [
			        [10,20,30],
 				[30,30,0],
 				[5,45,10],
                            ]
                          }
		 );

OPTIONS

The following options are standard among all Glyphs. See Bio::Graphics::Glyph for a full explanation.

Option      Description                      Default
------      -----------                      -------

-fgcolor      Foreground color	       black

-outlinecolor	Synonym for -fgcolor

-bgcolor      Background color               turquoise

-fillcolor    Synonym for -bgcolor

-linewidth    Line width                     1

-height       Height of glyph		       10

-font         Glyph font		       gdSmallFont

-label        Whether to draw a label	       0 (false)

-description  Whether to draw a description  0 (false)

-hilite       Highlight color                undef (no color)

In addition, the alignment glyph recognizes all the options of the xyplot glyph, as well as the following glyph-specific option:

 Option         Description                  Default
 ------         -----------                  -------

-fixed_gap     Vertical distance between      8
               the rectangle that shows
               the start:end range of
               the feature and the fixed
               width stacked plot.

-series_colors A list giving a series of     red,blue,green,orange,
               color names for the data      brown,grey,black
               series (the values inside
               each stacked column).

-column_labels A list of labels to print     -none-
               underneath each column.

-column_width  The width of each column.     8

-column_spacing Spacing between each         2
               column.

-min_score     Minimum score for the         0.0
               sum of the members of
               each data series.

-max_score     Maximum score for the         1.0
               sum of the members of each
               data series.

-scale_font    Font to use for the scale.    gdTinyFont

-column_font   Font to use for the column    gdSmallFont
               labels.

-draw_scale    Whether to draw a scale to    true
               right of the columns.

Note that -min_score and -max_score represent the minimum and maximum SUM of all the values in the data series. For example, if your largest column contains the series (10,20,30), then the -max_score is 60.

EXAMPLE

To understand how this glyph works, try running and modifying the following example:

 #!/usr/bin/perl

 use strict;
 use warnings;

 use Bio::Graphics;
 use Bio::SeqFeature::Generic;

 my $segment  = Bio::Graphics::Feature->new(-start=>1,-end=>700);

 my $snp1     = Bio::SeqFeature::Generic ->new (-start     => 500,-end=>590,
 					        -display_name =>'fred',
					        -tag=> { series => [
 								     [10,20,30],
 								     [30,30,0],
 								     [5,45,10],
 								     [5,45,10],
 								     [5,45,10],
 								     [50,0,50],
 								    ],
						      },
					        -source=>'A test',
					        );

 my $snp2     = Bio::SeqFeature::Generic->new(-start     => 300,
					      -end       => 301,
					      -display_name  => 'rs12345',
					      -tag=> {
						     series => [
								     [30,20,10 ],
								     [80,10,10 ],
							       ],
						    },
					      -source=>'Another test',
					    );

 my $panel = Bio::Graphics::Panel->new(-segment=>$segment,-width=>800);

 $panel->add_track($segment,-glyph=>'arrow',-double=>1,-tick=>2);
 $panel->add_track([$snp1,$snp2],
		   -height    => 50,
		   -glyph     => 'stackedplot',
		   -fixed_gap => 12,
		   -series_colors    => [qw(red blue lavender)],
		   -column_labels => [qw(a b c d e f g)],
		   -min_score => 0,
		   -max_score => 100,
		   -column_width => 8,
		   -column_font  => 'gdMediumBoldFont',
		   -scale_font   => 'gdTinyFont',
		   -label    => 1,
		   -description=>1,
		  );
 print $panel->png;
