Sample names cut off in diff plots #24

Closed funnell closed 10 years ago

The diff plots cut off the names of the samples. Right now I see that the orange and blue histograms are both labeled "SA46(n=1)"

Hi @funnell,

I truncate the names to keep them a reasonable size (4 does seem a bit small though), perhaps I can add a few more characters at some point..

From vast-tools diff -h :

[input options]

    --sampleNameA=STRING
        Name of the replicate set A, [default is first element of --replicateA]

    --sampleNameB=STRING
        Name of the replicate set B, [default is first element of --replicateB]

I can also specify that these will be truncated in the doc lines here.. but regardless you can simply specify a four letter sample name to --sampleNameA and --sampleNameB flags..
