Use gradient colors
checkbox is now found under theColors
tab.
Bug Fixes
- Add more meaningful error message for biplots when the contingency table passed included only one row.
Bug Fixes
- Fixes bug where files named
procrustes_results.txt
would not be ignored in a plot comparison.
New features
- Scientific notation is now taken into account in the GUI for scientific coloring.
- GUI is usable in mobile devices that support WebGL.
- User documentation: tutorial, installation instructions, GUI description, etc.
- Ability to make plot comparisons (very useful for procrustes analysis plots).
- The user can select the number of axes to be considered in the GUI and re-plot using lower axes; this is, for example: PC3 vs PC4 vs PC10.
- In missing_custom_axes_values you can reference other column within the mapping file to place the samples without numeric values at different points in the gradient.
- Parallel plots functionality.
- Separated out some options to the View menu.
- The "Colors" tab now has a selector, which allows to use the arrows to move between categories.
- Default coloring scheme is discrete.
- Add color pickers for the axes and axes labels.
- To take a screenshot (PNG) of your current visualization you can press
ctrl+p
. - Export to SVG your visualization.
- Emperor now relies on QIIME 1.7.0.
- Added option
--number_of_segments
to control the quality of all spheres - Labels for biplots now have a color picker.
- Add color pickers for connecting bars in coordinate comparison plots.
- Add option to select a master set of coordinates when making a comparison plot.
- Adds a feature to negate axes. With this feature you can negate the coordinates of each data point. As a result, the spheres and/or edges will be adjusted appropriately.
- Minor additions to the separator controller for the side bar.
- As of 308629f550ff3e108903d3bcf1ce76ce85f4cb96 Emperor is now released under a BSD license.
Bug Fixes
- Fixes recenter camera not working.
- Category names are sorted alphabetically.
- Category names with non-alphanumeric characters are colored correctly now.
- Biplots checkbox now accurately reflects status of biplot visiblity rather than opposite.
- Comparison bars checkbox now accurately reflects status of the visiblity rather than opposite.
- Scaling by percent explained now works with vectors and coordinate comparison plots.
- Fixed bug where only the first bars in coordinate comparison plots could be hidden.
- Improved documentation for saving and exporting images.
- Emperor now fails graciously when WebGL is not enabled and gives you a few suggestions on how to get it to work.
New features:
- Intuitive and modern graphical user interface.
- Simple workflow to modify the color of a sample/label from the user interface.
- Color the labels for the samples by a category in the mapping file.
- Scale the elements in the plot by the percentage explained from the user interface.
- Notify the user when values will be removed from the input files.
- Search for a sample name from the graphical user interface.
- Show a selector in the plot when double-clicking a sample name.
- Show and hide samples by a category in the mapping file.
- Change the opacity of spheres/ellipses from the graphical user interface.
- Change the size of a sphere from the graphical user interface.
- Biplots can be created with a custom axis.
- The color of the biplot spheres can now be changed from the user interface.
- Extensive script usage testing
- Addition of contextualized error messages.
- Reduced output size for datasets with rich mapping files.
Performance improvements:
- Improved performance and responsiveness from the graphical user interface.
- Superior graphics quality; elements are rendered in the graphics card not in the CPU.
- Enhanced performance to create the output files.
