Bio::Graphics::RendererI - A renderer for the Bio::Graphics class that renders Bio::SeqFeature::CollectionI objects onto Bio::Graphics::Panels using configuration information provided by a Bio::Graphics::ConfiguratorI. # Get a renderer somehow, called $renderer # create a new panel and render contents a feature collection onto it my $config = new ConfigIO( $config_file )->getConfig(); my $features = $data_provider->getCollection(); my ( $tracks_rendered, $panel ) = $renderer->render( $features, $prefs ); Renderer of Bio::SeqFeature::CollectionIs (collections of features) onto a Bio::Graphics::Panel using a Bio::Graphics::ConfiguratorI for general and track-specific rendering options.

render
Title : render Usage : ( $rendered, $panel ) = $renderer->render( $collection, $configurator [, $panel ] ); Function: Renders the SeqFeatures in the given collection onto a Bio::Graphics::Panel (if no panel is given, one will be created), using the given Bio::Graphics::ConfiguratorI for general and track-specific rendering options. Returns : In a scalar context returns the number of tracks rendered. In a list context, returns a two-element list containing the number of features rendered and the panel. Args : A Bio::SeqFeature::CollectionI and a Bio::Graphics::ConfiguratorI and optionally a Bio::Graphics::Panel. Status : Public
