Methods to set data slots for SpatialMap, Region, or Analysis objects
Setters.Rd
Setter functions take the object as the first argument and a new value as the
second. These functions allow a user to directly modify an object's data slot.
Each method implements checks on the validity of the object after the data
slot is modified. Use caution when applying Setters
, since they modify the
objects in place, and cannot be undone.
Usage
projectMetadata(x) <- value
# S4 method for SpatialMap
projectMetadata(x) <- value
featureInfo(x) <- value
# S4 method for Region
featureInfo(x) <- value
features(x) <- value
# S4 method for Region
features(x) <- value
# S4 method for Analysis
features(x) <- value
# S4 method for list
features(x) <- value
# S4 method for list
features(x) <- value
# S4 method for SpatialMap
features(x) <- value
cells(x) <- value
# S4 method for Region,list
cells(x) <- value
# S4 method for Region,character
cells(x) <- value
# S4 method for Analysis,list
cells(x) <- value
channelInfo(x) <- value
# S4 method for Region
channelInfo(x) <- value
bgData(x) <- value
# S4 method for Region
bgData(x) <- value
bgFeatures(x) <- value
# S4 method for Region
bgFeatures(x) <- value
Arguments
- x
A SpatialMap or Region object
- value
If applicable, a character string specifying which named item
Details
Setter functions are supplemented by helper functions, such as addCellMetadata
and updateRegionData
, that provide a high-level API into the S4
objects, with more comprehensive validity checks, error messages, and a smoother, more flexible user interface.
Getter methods correspond to data slots in the S4 objects:
projectMetadata<-
(SpatialMap)cells<-
features<-
activeRegions<-
(SpatialMap)activeAnalysis<-
(SpatialMap)cellMetadata<-
featureInfo<-
bgData<-
