Bio::Graphics::Glyph::generic(3)

NAME
Bio::Graphics::Glyph::generic - The "generic" glyph

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

DESCRIPTION
This is identical to the "box" glyph except that it will draw the subparts of features that contain subfeatures. The subparts are not connected -- use the "segments" glyph for that. "Generic" is the default glyph used when not otherwise specified.

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

-pad_top and -pad_bottom allow you to insert some blank space between the glyph's boundary and its contents. This is useful if you are changing the glyph's height dynamically based on its feature's score.
