subtrack scaling to combined min/max #31

Open ii-bioinfo-thomas opened 11 years ago

ii-bioinfo-thomas commented 11 years ago

Hi,

I'm not 100% sure if it is a bug or feature but previously (GBrowse 2.52) the scaling mechanism of several subtracks worked different than in GBrowse 2.54. When scaling wiggle_xyplot to the local min/max it scaled previously all tracks to the same value. Now it scales each subtrack to it's own min/max. The function of GBrowse 2.52 of a combined local min/max was very helpful to judge expression differences of normalized wiggle tracks. Scaling to a fixed value still scales all subtracks to the same value what is great. Is there some possibility to configure/reimplement the feature of combined local min/max for all subtracks?

Thanks a lot for your great work, Thomas

Hi Thomas,

Are you sure it did that? I could have sworn it didn't, but since I don't use that on a day to day basis, I could be misremembering.

Hi Scott,

thanks for the reply. I'm sure since we've both GBrowse instances running in parallel. Both access the same sample & track configs and data files. This works only for subtracks (defined over metadata.txt, GBrowse 2.52) and not for independent tracks.

Best regards, Thomas
