Filtering Tools: log(p) threshold does not allow negative numbers #12

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
A typical log(p) threshold might be -6, but the default value is 0.5 and it 
won't let me enter a negative number and it says "the maximum value for this 
field is 0.9"

It would be better to use -log(p) ( negative log(p))  as a transformation of p, 
as it is always positive.   And base 10 is not a bad idea as well if that is 
not being used :

-log10(p)

If we change the data input to the app, we can switch to -log10(p).

For now, it is log10(p) allowing values from 0 to -300.
