Bugs
Please report them.
Description
This glyph draws a series of filled rectangles connected by up-angled connectors or "hats". The
rectangles indicate exons; the hats are introns. The direction of transcription is indicated by a small
arrow at the end of the glyph, rightward for the + strand.
The feature must respond to the exons() and optionally introns() methods, or it will default to the
generic display. Implied introns (not returned by the introns() method) are drawn in a contrasting color
to explicit introns.
OPTIONS
In addition to the common options, the following glyph-specific option is recognized:
Option Description Default
------ ----------- -------
-implied_intron_color The color to use for gaps gray
not returned by the introns()
method.
-draw_arrow Whether to draw arrowhead true
indicating direction of
transcription.
