Description

When the user wants to review the results of a run, it takes too long to hover over each sample to see the actual number of reads that mapped to each region. We may also want to display minimum coverage instead of mapped counts.
One alternative is to display floor(log10(count)) in each cell of the table. In other words, a single digit to show the count's order of magnitude. This digit will be replaced by a check mark or cross when the sample is reviewed.

  • Discuss where to show mapped counts and where to show minimum coverage.
  • Display one, both, or neither of those in the hover text.
  • Display the order of magnitude of one of those numbers in the cell content.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the run-results table and its current hover behavior. Decide where mapped counts and minimum coverage should appear, whether either belongs in the hover text, and which value should be represented by an order-of-magnitude digit in each cell; the issue is done when these display choices are implemented and the review check mark or cross still works.
