Any way to save the interactive dot plot? #10

Hi,

Thanks for developing such a nice tool. User-friendly as well.

The interactive dot plot is great, just wondering is there anyway to save it as a figure with proper resolution (say 300dpi or higher) for publication?

The code page has explained that "interactive dot plot which is only available in the web version".

Thank you! I'm glad you found Assemblytics useful. Since you want to have a high-res image for publication, I recommend saving the dot plot as an SVG file, which is the format it is created in already, which is a vector format so it has infinite resolution. There are a few ways to save SVGs from websites.

There's a Chrome extension you can try: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/svg-export/naeaaedieihlkmdajjefioajbbdbdjgp?hl=en-GB

And here is an alternative: https://nytimes.github.io/svg-crowbar/

After you save the SVG, you can submit it straight to the journal, or you can even open it in Illustrator or Inkscape (free) to edit it.
