The function OLINgui
provides a graphical user interface for
visualisation, normalisation and quality testing of two-channel microarray data.
It is based on the functions of the OLIN package.

The function OLINgui
launches a graphical user interface for the OLIN package.
It is based on Tk widgets using the R TclTk interface by Peter Dalgaard. It also employs
some pre-made widgets from the tkWidgets Bioconductor-package by Jianhua Zhang for
the selection of objects/files to be loaded.
OLINgui provides a convient interface to most functionalities of the OLIN package without restriction of options. An exception is the visualisaton, where default arguments for plotting are used. To fine-tune plots, the underlying plotting functions in the OLIN package can be applied.
The usage of OLINgui assumes existing marray objects for the batch of arrays to
be analysed and normalised. To construct marray objects using a graphical interface, refer to read.marrayRaw
.
Some underlying functions (e.g.mxy2.plot
and optinally olin
)
) require an additonal list of X- and Y-coordinates of spots.
This has to be done “by hand” yet. However, most functions do not need this list.
For a overview of the functionality of OLINgui, please refer to the package documentation.
OLINgui returns a tclObj object.
