NAME

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

SYNOPSIS

         See L<Bio::Graphics::Panel>, L<Bio::Graphics::Glyph>
             and L<Bio::Graphics::Browser::Plugin::Spectrogram>

DESCRIPTION

       This glyph is designed to draw DNA spectrograms for the Spectrogram plugin.  It is not
       meant to be used as a standalone glyph and has few public options.  Most of the glyph's
       behavior is controlled via the spectrogram plugin.

       The glyph expects unaggregated 1D spectrogram features, each of which is a vertical
       column, with one row for each integer frequency.  The number of frequencies is controlled
       by the window size and/or the Spectrogram plugin.  The width of the feature corresponds to
       the size of the overlap between adjacent windows.  The values for each frequency are in
       four channels, one for each base.  The color of each row ("spot") represents the dominant
       base(s) and the intensity represents the magnitude of the signal at that frequency

       The entire 2D spectrogram is a series of unaggregated, unbumped 1D spectrogram features.

       The spectrogram glyph assigns colors using the HSV color space, where an angular
       coordinate for hue is assigned to each base (G yellow [60]; A blue [240]; C green [120]; T
       red[0/360]).  The saturation value is fixed at the maximum of 100 and the brightness value
       is scaled according to the magnitude for each frequency, ranging from black to the pure
       hue.

       The hue is determined in one of two ways:

       If the signal for one base is dominant (> 50% of total for the four channels) the angular
       coordinate for that base is used.  The brightness is calculated using the total signal
       from all four channels.

       If no base has a dominant signal, the weighted average angular coordinate is calculated
       using the relative contribution from each channel.  The brightness is calculated from the
       total signal from all four channels.

       The y-axis labels require at least 40 pixels of left-padding.  They will be truncated if
       less than 40 of padding is specified in the configuration file.

   OPTIONS
       The following standard options are accepted:

         Option      Description                      Default

         -bump       Whether to bump features         off

       The following glyph-specific options are also used:
