viewGRangesWinSample_dt: get a windowed sampling of score_gr
In seqsetvis: Set Based Visualizations for Next-Gen Sequencing Data

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Examples

This method is appropriate when all GRanges in qgr are identical width and when it is practical to use a window_size smaller than features in genomic signal. For instance, when retrieving signal around peaks or promoters this method maintains a fixed genomic scale across regions. This allows meaingful comparison of peak widths can be made.

viewGRangesWinSample_dt(
  score_gr,
  qgr,
  window_size,
  attrib_var = "score",
  fill_value = 0,
  anchor = c("center", "center_unstranded", "left", "left_unstranded")[1]
)

`score_gr`	GRanges with a "score" metadata column.
`qgr`	regions to view by window.
`window_size`	qgr will be represented by value from score_gr every window_size bp.
`attrib_var`	character name of attribute to pull data from. Default is "score", compatible with with bigWigs or bam coverage.
`fill_value`	numeric or character value to use where queried regions are empty. Default is 0 and appropriate for both calculated coverage and bedgraph/bigwig like files. Will automatically switch to "MISSING" if data is guessed to be qualitative.
`anchor`	character. controls how x value is derived from position for each region in qgr. 0 may be the left side or center. If not unstranded, x coordinates are flipped for (-) strand. One of c("center", "center_unstranded", "left", "left_unstranded"). Default is "center".

Summarizes score_gr by grabbing value of "score" every window_size bp. Columns in output data.table are: standard GRanges columns: seqnames, start, end, width, strand id - matched to names(score_gr). if names(score_gr) is missing, added as 1:length(score_gr). y - value of score from score_gr. x - relative bp position.
