saving visual output #1

Closed eoziolor closed 4 years ago

eoziolor commented 4 years ago

Hi, I find the Dot tool very useful for visualizing Mummer output! Thank you for creating this tool!

Is there a way to save the output in a high quality image? Maybe I'm missing it, but it is not obvious to me how I'd do that. Thank you!

Hi Elias

I'm glad you have found Dot useful! Unfortunately, saving a high quality image isn't possible because to make it scalable, I had to layer canvas and svg on top of each other. There are libraries for saving the SVG part, but then the alignments wouldn't be included, so that would not work at all in this case. The best option is to take a screenshot.

Sorry about that! Maria
