Hi, I'm a R and Bioconductor beginner currently trying to get myself familiar with the Gviz package, thus "playing" around with the examples provided in the package manual. I'm using Bioconductor version 2.12 and this is what is happening: > library(GenomicRanges) > library(Gviz) > data(cpgIslands) > chr <- as.character(unique(seqnames(cpgIslands))) > gen <- genome(cpgIslands) > AnnotationTrack(cpgIslands, name = "CpG") -> atrack > GenomeAxisTrack() -> gtrack > plotTracks(atrack, gtrack) Fehler in rep(no, length.out = length(ans)) : attempt to replicate an object of type 'S4' Further information: -------------------------------------------- > traceback() 8: ifelse(is.null(from), -Inf, from) 7: ifelse(is.null(from), -Inf, from) 6: .local(x, ...) 5: FUN(X[[1L]], ...) 4: FUN(X[[1L]], ...) 3: lapply(trackList, subset, from = from, to = to, chromosome = chromosome, sort = FALSE, stacks = FALSE, use.defaults = FALSE) 2: lapply(trackList, subset, from = from, to = to, chromosome = chromosome, sort = FALSE, stacks = FALSE, use.defaults = FALSE) 1: plotTracks(atrack, gtrack) ----------------------------------------------------- > sessionInfo() R version 3.0.1 (2013-05-16) Platform: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu (64-bit) locale: [1] LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 LC_NUMERIC=C LC_TIME=en_GB.UTF-8 LC_COLLATE=en_GB.UTF-8 [5] LC_MONETARY=en_GB.UTF-8 LC_MESSAGES=en_GB.UTF-8 LC_PAPER=C LC_NAME=C [9] LC_ADDRESS=C LC_TELEPHONE=C LC_MEASUREMENT=en_GB.UTF-8 LC_IDENTIFICATION=C attached base packages: [1] parallel grid stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base other attached packages: [1] GenomicRanges_1.12.5 IRanges_1.18.3 BiocGenerics_0.6.0 Gviz_1.4.5 BiocInstaller_1.10.3 loaded via a namespace (and not attached): [1] AnnotationDbi_1.22.6 Biobase_2.20.1 biomaRt_2.16.0 Biostrings_2.28.0 biovizBase_1.8.1 [6] bitops_1.0-6 BSgenome_1.28.0 cluster_1.14.4 colorspace_1.2-2 DBI_0.2-7 [11] dichromat_2.0-0 GenomicFeatures_1.12.3 Hmisc_3.12-2 labeling_0.2 lattice_0.20-23 [16] munsell_0.4.2 plyr_1.8 RColorBrewer_1.0-5 RCurl_1.95-4.1 rpart_4.1-3 [21] Rsamtools_1.12.4 RSQLite_0.11.4 rtracklayer_1.20.4 scales_0.2.3 stats4_3.0.1 [26] stringr_0.6.2 tools_3.0.1 XML_3.98-1.1 zlibbioc_1.6.0 ------------------------------------------------ Thanks for you help!
