Bio::Graphics::Glyph::diamond - The "diamond" glyph

NAME

Bio::Graphics::Glyph::diamond - The "diamond" glyph

SYNOPSIS

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

DESCRIPTION

This glyph draws a diamond of fixed size, positioned in the center of the feature. The height and width of the diamond are set by the "height" option.

OPTIONS

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

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

  -bgcolor      Background color               turquoise
  -fillcolor    Synonym for -bgcolor
  -linewidth    Line width                     1
  -height       Height of glyph                10
  -font         Glyph font                     gdSmallFont
  -connector    Connector type                 0 (false)
  -connector_color
                Connector color                black

  -description  Whether to draw a description  0 (false)
  -hilite       Highlight color                undef (no color)

The following glyph-specific options are also recognized:

  Option      Description                      Default
  ------      -----------                      -------
  -point      Do not increase wideness of glyph   0 (false)
              even if size of feature is >1
  -fallback_to_rectangle                          0 (false)
              If the feature's length is > 1,
              then draw the feature as a
              rectangle, not a diamond.

BUGS

If the feature is wider than a point, then the label and description are placed where the feature's boundary is, and not where the diamond is drawn.
