[Bioperl-l] The axis of GC content in Bio::Graphics::glyph:dna

[michael watson (IAH-C)]

Hi Lincoln/List
 
That's great, the axis now appears, but there are no labels.  This in
itself isn't a problem, as long as we can assume that the tick marks are
at 0, 50% and 100%?  If that's true, we can go with what we have,
otherwise I'm going to have to figure out a way to label the y-axis
 
Thanks
Mick

Hi Michael,

When you set up the panel, do this:

 Bio::Graphics::Panel->new(-blah -blah,
                                         -pad_left => 20,
                                          -pad_right => 20); 

This will leave enough room on the left and right for you to see the Y
axis. Otherwise it runs off the edge of the image (ok, this is a
mis-design, but it was the only way to solve a chicken-and-egg problem
about who gets to say how wide the panel is)

	Hi
	
	OK I have some great images out of this glyph, but I can't see
the axis,
	and nor is it labelled (ie does it go from 0 - 100%?) so isn't
great for
	publication.  The docs say:
	
	"NOTE: -gc_window=>'auto' gives nice results and is recommended
for 
	drawing GC content. The GC content axes draw slightly outside
the
	panel, so you may wish to add some extra padding on the right
and
	left. "
	
	Any idea how to do this?
	
	Basically, I want a nice GC graph with the axis quite clearly
labelled, 
	and a nice "%GC" title next to it :)
	
	Thanks
	
	Mick
