plotTIC: Plotting TIC of one run

Description

This function can be used to plot the total ion chromatogram (TIC) profile of a run, showing the accumulated measurements for all fragments versus time. The run can be optianed by getPeak.

Usage

plotTIC(Run = list(), file.name = character())

Arguments

Run

a list inclduing the information of all detected peaks in one run.

file.name

a character vector (string) of names of the runs which is used to name the figure file when saving, if the Run is provided, this argument is ignored.

Value

• A logical value which is TRUE if the resulted plot is saved

Details
