I'm trying to use gridGraphics::grid.echo
according to this link so I can combine a Gviz
plotTracks
plot with a ggplot
using cowplot
's plot_grid
.
Following Gviz
's vignette and this link, here's what I do:
require(Gviz)
data(geneModels)
gtrack <- GenomeAxisTrack()
itrack <- IdeogramTrack(genome = "hg19", chromosome = as.character(geneModels$chromosome[1]))
grtrack <- GeneRegionTrack(geneModels, genome = "hg19",chromosome = as.character(geneModels$chromosome[1]), name = "Gene Model")
require(gridGraphics)
gwrap_plot <- function(x) {
tree <- grid::grid.grabExpr(gridGraphics::grid.echo(x))
u <- grid::unit(1, 'null')
gtable::gtable_col(NULL, list(tree), u, u)
}
graphics.off()
plotTracks(list(itrack, gtrack, grtrack))
track.plot <- recordPlot()
gwrap_plot(track.plot)
And I get this error:
Error in switch(x[[2]][[1]]$name, C_abline = C_abline(x[[2]]), C_plot_new = C_plot_new(x[[2]]), :
EXPR must be a length 1 vector
Any idea what's the problem of gridGraphics
's grid.echo
with Gviz
's plotTracks
plot?
grid.echo
is for base graphics, Gviz appears to usegrid
graphics,
