Question about --outSAMmultNmax and TranscriptomeSAM #2140

Open andresferben opened 1 month ago

andresferben commented 1 month ago

Hi there,

It looks like the --outSAMmultNmax option does not affect the transcriptome BAM (generated with --quantMode TranscriptomeSAM). Is this correct? Is there a way to make it work? I need to get only the best alignment per read, which is achieved with --outSAMmultNmax 1 for the genome BAM but not for the transcriptome.

Thanks
