Label of the y-axis of the weighted histograms #311

Hello,

I have a question regarding the label of the y-axis of the weighted histograms. My weighted histrograms all have "Number of reads" on the y-axis what doesn't really make sense to me because the "number of reads" in the histograms would exceed the total number of reads that I obtained. In older histograms that were posted the y-axis of the weighted histograms were always labeled with "number of bases". Why are they now labeled with number of reads? (I added an example)

Thanks! WeightedHistogramReadlength

You are right, that label is incorrect and should still be number of bases. I will correct this.
