\title{Plot the data and results from segmentation for a single sample}
\description{
  Plots the data for a single sample from a copy number array experiment
  (aCGH, ROMA etc.) along with the results of segmenting it into regions
  of equal copy numbers.
} 
\usage{
  plotSample(x, sampleid=NULL, chromlist=NULL, xmaploc=FALSE,
             col=c("black","green"), pch=".", cex=1, altcol=TRUE,
             segcol="red", lwd=3, zeroline=TRUE, zlcol="grey",
             xlab="", ylab="", main="", ...)
}
\arguments{
  \item{x}{an object of class \code{DNAcopy} resulting from analyzing
    data from copy number array experiments.}
  \item{sampleid}{the sample for which the plot is requested.  Should be
    a valid sample name or number.  If missing the first sample is plotted.} 
  \item{chromlist}{a vector of chromosome numers or names to be plotted.
    If missing the whole genome is plotted.}
  \item{xmaploc}{a logical indicating if data are plotted against genomic
    position or Index.  Defaults to \code{FALSE}.}
  \item{col}{a vector of two colors that can be used for alternating
    colors for successive chromosomes.}
  \item{pch}{the plotting character.  Defaults to \code{.}.}
  \item{cex}{the size of plotting character.  Default is 1 (3 of `.').}
  \item{altcol}{a logical indicating if colors of successive chromosomes
    should be alternated.  Defaults to \code{TRUE}.}
  \item{segcol}{color for segment means.}
  \item{zeroline}{a logical indicating if the zeroline is drawn.
    Defaults to \code{TRUE}.}
  \item{zlcol}{color for zero line.}
  \item{lwd}{thickness of the lines.}
  \item{xlab}{the x-axis lavel.}
  \item{ylab}{the y-axis label.}
  \item{main}{the main title.  Default is the sample name.}
  \item{...}{other arguments to the \code{plot} function can be passed here.}
}
\details{
  This function plots the whole genome and segmentation results for a single
  sample.  This function overcomes the deficiency in the plot.DNAcopy function
  which cycles through all the samples.  If sampleid is not specified the
  first sample is plotted.
