lassoPoints: Find rows of data within a closed lasso
In iSEE: Interactive SummarizedExperiment Explorer

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Author(s) See Also Examples

Identify the rows of a data.frame lying within a closed lasso polygon, analogous to brushedPoints.

1	lassoPoints(df, lasso)

`df`	A data.frame from which to select rows.
`lasso`	A list containing data from a lasso.

This function uses in.out from the mgcv package to identify points within a polygon. This involves a boundary crossing algorithm that may not be robust in the presence of complex polygons with intersecting edges.

A subset of rows from df with coordinates lying within lasso.
