Description
- I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.
- I have confirmed this bug exists on the latest version of scanpy.
- (optional) I have confirmed this bug exists on the master branch of scanpy.
Hello
It seems the heatmap generated by pl.rank_genes_groups_heatmap is showing repeated genes, as seem in the picture below
This occured in 1.7.1, which I had to use because of #1941
I assume this is not working as intended.
The command I have used is sc.pl.rank_genes_groups_heatmap(adata, n_genes=5, standard_scale='var', swap_axes=True)
