Rethink vertical positioning of KM plots in column

[mstreit]

Evenly distributing the KM plots in the column would reduce the ugly band compression that we currently have.

[sgratzl]

the same holds for pathways.

I would suggest (it enough space is available) to put it at the same y-position as their corresponding cluster

[mstreit]

I agree, putting the bricks one the same y-pos as the bricks in the column the pathway or KM plots are depending on would result in nice bands. @cpartl How difficult is this to implement? It would be nice to change it for the NMC screenshots.

Don't forget that there are often situations in which one or more blocks are really small and their height is less than the height required for the KM or pathway plot - you'd have to handle this somewhat flexibly to avoid overlapping blocks.

Yes, we discussed that already. I think equally distributing the bricks is the best and most universal solution.

Looks nice! However, before accepting the column, the bands are slightly off from the bricks. When hover over something, they are correct.

[mstreit]

The KM bricks now look a little bit detached though. Other opinions?

[cpartl]

Not sure what to do about the detached look. Maybe an unobtrusive column background would help, but not sure if we should do that.

Let's keep it as it is for now. Thanks for fixing.
