Description

From the IGV documentation: "Saves a snapshot of the IGV window to an image file. If filename is omitted, writes a .png file with a filename generated based on the locus. If filename is specified, the filename extension determines the image file format, which must be .png or .eps."

Usage

IGVsnapshot(sock, fname = "", dirname=getwd())

Arguments

sock
A socket connection to IGV.
fname
The filename to save. Alternatively, if not specified, IGV will create a filename based on the locus being viewed.
