maimage

Display a spatial image for microarray data

Syntax

maimage(X, FieldName, 'PropertyName', PropertyValue...)

maimage(..., 'Title', TitleValue)
maimage(..., 'ColorBar', ColorBarValue)
maimage(..., 'HandleGraphicsPropertyName' PropertyValue)
H = maimage(...)
[H, HLines] = maimage(...)

Description

maimage(X, FieldName, 'PropertyName', PropertyValue...) displays an image of field FieldName from microarray data structure X. Microarray data can be GenPix Results (GPR) format.

maimage(..., 'Title', TitleValue) allows you to specify the title of the plot. The default title is FieldName.

maimage(..., 'ColorBar', ColorBarValue) if ColorBarValue is true, a colorbar is shown. If ColorBarValue is false, no colorbar is shown. The default is for the colorbar to be shown.

ColorBarValue

Property to control displaying the colorbar in a figure window. Enter either true or false. The default value is false.

maimage(..., 'HandleGraphicsPropertyName' PropertyValue) allows you to pass optional Handle Graphics property name/value pairs to the function. For example, a name/value pair for color could be maimage(..., 'color' 'r').

H = maimage(...) returns the handle of the image.

[H, HLines] = maimage(...) returns the handles of the lines used to separate the different blocks in the image.

Examples

madata = gprread('mouse_a1wt.gpr');
maimage(madata,'F635 Median');

maimage(madata,'F635 Median - B635',...
        'Title','Cy5 Channel FG - BG');
