Can't get completeness/contamination tables

[bowmanjeffs]

After launching interactive view and loading bin collection I can see statistics for completeness/contamination but clicking those buttons, or the splits button, gets no response from browser. When I launch the interactive view I get these errors, which may be related (however interactive view proceeds to launch just fine). I'm using the latest version of Chrome available for Ubuntu.

grep: write error [15688:15688:0807/113934:ERROR:gl_surface_glx.cc(348)] GLX 1.3 or later is required. [15688:15688:0807/113934:ERROR:gl_surface_x11.cc(56)] GLSurfaceGLX::InitializeOneOff failed.

Hi Jeff,

This is interesting. @ozcanesen, do you have any idea?

I wonder whether this could be related to your Chrome build. Here is mine:

Thanks,

[bowmanjeffs]

Glad I can continue to provide interesting problems...

Same build (Version 44.0.2403.125 (64-bit)).

@ozcanesen can you please look into this on an Ubuntu computer?

[ozcan]

I couldn't reproduce it on my ubuntu laptop, going to try it in vm with fresh install.

@bowmanjeffs: can you see anything in javascript console (ctrl+shift+J / cmd+option+J) when you press splits/completeness buttons?

[bowmanjeffs]

ctrl+shift+J brings up a save file (save webpage) dialogue for me ...

@bowmanjeffs Sorry, You can open console using Menu > More Tools > Javascript Console, also.

In the console I see some commands associated with generating the tree:

tree_draw [tooltips]: 0.228 seconds (0.228 seconds since beginning) utils.js:229 tree_draw [normalizations]: 0.119 seconds (0.347 seconds since beginning) utils.js:229 tree_draw [barsizes]: 0.876 seconds (1.22 seconds since beginning) utils.js:229 tree_draw [done]: 5.13 seconds (6.36 seconds since beginning) treelib.js:2383 [info] Leaf count: 9589 treelib.js:2384 [info] Object count in tree (with guide lines): 33560 treelib.js:2385 [info] Total objects in SVG: 93354

Clicking the buttons does not generate any new entries in the log.

Jeff, this is very weird. Because if this is a javascript issue there must be something in the logs :/

Do you mind taking a screenshot of where are you clicking on the page? I am sorry, we are a bit confused with this issue :)

I thought a video would be more informative...

Note that I'm viewing with Xming, but the behavior is the same if I'm sitting at the console.

@bowmanjeffs Hey thank you this is very informative, the results appear in bottom of the same tab like this

[meren]

Thank you for sending this, Jeff.

This obviously is a usability issue, @ozcanesen :/ We can't really expect people to go all the way down to the page to see these results. But we also have links to click down in the table, so we need to keep it as well.

I think the solution is a mouse-over popup that shows the content of that table, and if the user clicks on the button, the page scrolls down to the table area. Does it make sense? Do you think it is a good solution?

[bowmanjeffs]

Thanks! Don't know how I missed that...

Meren - I think what you propose is a good solution. It is a little cumbersome to keep scrolling to end if there are many bins.

[meren]

Yes. It is an ancient struggle to keep usability and functionality keep up with each other.

@ozcanesen, another solution could be showing a draggable modal window.
