plotly #2

Open evewurtele opened 7 years ago

evewurtele commented 7 years ago

when I use plotly, it only plots a portion of the data I select. example is this phylostratum.

also, words overlap.

also, the legend is not explained. metaoku-plot

What data is missing?

I don't have a good system currently for displaying documentation. Most of the plots don't really need them, but this one definitely does. I could add a caption to each figure, it would take up some space, which is a bit limited. Perhaps I could have a caption that can be toggled on or off.

The values in the legend correspond to -log_2(observed_counts / expected_counts).

IN a given figure, it isnt clear what the legend is about.

-log_2(observed_counts / expected_counts). which counts (if one is comparing two columns) ?

arendsee commented 7 years ago

The observed counts for a given cell are the number of rows with the given pair of x- and y-axis categories. The expected counts are the total number of rows divided by the product of the number of x- and y-axis categories, that is, the number of counts that would be expected if counts were evenly distributed across the cells.
