Export edge table from network tab #198

Open palenic opened 2 years ago

Hi, the edge data .csv file exported from the network tab of ShinyGO 0.76 has incorrect formatting with newlines inside terms in some of the lines. This causes external tools like Cytoscape to not be able to read the file correctly. Even if it can be read with other means, it is laborious and prone to errors. Importing it to excel and re-exporting it as a different format does not work, since while excel can correctly separate the fields, the output file still has newlines inside terms. I have attached the file obtained with the Demo list of genes and a screenshot as an example, but I have also encountered the issue with my own gene lists.

(I know I can take a screenshot of the network plot ShinyGO provides - but I wanted to add my own formatting to the plot)

Best
