Is there a way of plotting an affy image to a single frame for display/printing side by-side?

can you give more details? the function "par" may be what you want.

Yes I mean that when I use the image methods of the affybatch Class. I get a series of images separated by a carriage return. I don't understand the inner workings of this method which appears different from the image method in the base package (which also appears to accept different arguments). So how do I use par to create a single image of say 6 chips in one frame? -----Original Message----- From: Rafael A.

Thanks that works just dandy! -----Original Message----- From: Laurent Gautier To: Stephen Henderson Cc: 'rafa@jhu.edu'; 'bioconductor@stat.math.ethz.ch' Sent: 12/12/02 03:48 Subject: Re: [BioC] affy image function On Wed, Dec 11, 2002 at 12:22:08PM -0000, Stephen Henderson wrote: > Yes I mean that when I use the image methods of the affybatch Class.

As you point it out, 'image' is a method. The package 'base' defines it for matrices, and in 'affy' it is defined for AffyBatch and Cel. An AffyBatch bundles several Cel (hence several images). The man pages are not perfect for the arguments.
