ChIPseeker: Is it possible to create heatmaps / metagene plots without being centered on the TSS?

So if you look at https://bioconductor.riken.jp/packages/3.2/bioc/vignettes/ChIPseeker/inst/doc/ChIPseeker.html you will notice that most of the data generated is centered on the TSS. 

 

I would like to know if it is possible to center metagene plots (and other data) either at the start of exons / introns / or exon/intron junctions or in the middle of exons themselves?

I am aware that exons all vary in length so that any firm known middle of the exon does not exist, but perhaps there is a way to normalize exon length throughout the hg19 genome?

Is there anything similar to the TSS but for exons? Introns? Junctions?

 

Thank you!

Yes, it's possible. getPromoters function is center all peaks to the TSS. This is gene level, I can modify it to intron or exon level.

When you say "I can modify it to intron or exon level" you mean .. you as the developer and then push out an update that would allow us to do this or this is something I can accomplish at this moment too?

Probably a silly question but oh well.

 

Thanks a ton,
