How to display sample names on stacked bar charts? #3

Closed jennomics closed 10 years ago

How can I display my SampleIDs instead of numbers on the stacked bar charts?

Thanks!

In your QIIME mapping file (that you add to your .biom file with the biom add-metadata command), you should include a column with the header labelled "phinchID". Phinch will then know to pull these names into the parser window. Because of display limits, I'd recommend that phinchID labels be limited to 15 characters or under. See also Issue #5
