NAME

       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.

SYNOPSIS

        # 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 );

DESCRIPTION

       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.

        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.
