Need new function to pull out list of entries

[yifangt]

Hi Tauno:
Thank you for the ClustVis package which is very helpful for my project!
I wish CustVis had another function (as pull-down menu) to subtract a list of genes of my interest. For example, at differential expression analysis there will be gene list for significantly expressed. If there is option that gene list could be pasted (or loaded from file which contains the gene list) and their expression level would be displayed in the main panel. This is quite similar to database query, but it seems do-able with a simpler way in ClustVis.
I failed to add this function to it as your ClustVis seems quite complicated project beyond my coding capability at this moment.

Hi, thanks for the idea! I will consider it in the next versions of ClustVis.

But at the moment, the simplest way for you to achieve it is to add a binary variable as a row annotation in your data (e.g. 1 if the gene is in the gene list and 0 otherwise, see "Help" tab for the file format). Then you can filter the rows based on this annotation ("Data import" - "filter rows" - choose the variable that you created and keep only your gene list of interest checked).
