In hzhanghenry/caOmicsV: Visualization of multi-dimentional cancer genomics data

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) Examples

Calculate x and y coordinates for an customized arrow head and tail with defined length to connect two nodes.

1	getBioNetNodeLinkLine(lineX, lineY, arrowSize=1, lineLength)

`lineX`	numeric vector, x coordinates of the link line
`lineY`	numeric vector, y coordinates of the link line
`arrowSize`	non-negative numeric, scaling factor for arrow size, default 1
`lineLength`	non negative integer, the length of link line

An arrow is drawn as a polygon. By default, the arrow is in inside of a circle (radius 1) without tail and it points to radian 0. The tail, if any, will be added to the left.

A two dimensional numeric matrix for x and y coordinates of the arrow.
