Description

Plots the chromosome names in the karyoplot

Usage

kpAddChromosomeNames(karyoplot, chr.names=NULL, xoffset=0, yoffset=0, ...)

karyoplot	a karyoplot object returned by a call to plotKaryotype
chr.names	(character vector) the names to use for the chromosomes. If NULL, the chromosome names in the original genome will be used. (defaults to NULL)
xoffset	(numeric) a number of units to move the the chromosome names on the x axis with respect to their standard position (defaults to 0)
yoffset	(numeric) a number of units to move the the chromosome names on the y axis with respect to their standard position (defaults to 0)
...	any additional parameter to be passed to the text plotting. All R base graphics params are passed along.

Given a KaryoPlot object, plot the names of the depicted chromosomes. This function is usually automatically called by plotKaryotype unless labels.plotter is NULL.

Value

invisibly returns the given karyoplot object
