@dlebauer

Just wanted to clarify with you if it is the method name in the trait plot legend that you would like to have hyperlinked to a method page in BETYdb?

I have been looking up ways to hyperlink text in a ggplot, but the approaches that I have seen require javascript or the gridSVG package. Using the gridSVG package requires converting a ggplot into a SVG image, which takes away the hover feature for the trait plot. Do you know of any other way to hyperlink text in a ggplot that doesn't require javascript or conversion to a SVG image?

definitely not worth doing this, but might be worth having a table at the bottom of the page that contains information from the variables and methods tables. That would remove the need to have a link, since the information would be provided on the page.

This issue has been changed from linking method name in trait plot legend to BETYdb method record to adding links to BETYdb variable and method records using tables
