# plotly_tabular_tool

Galaxy tool to create plotly plots from user selected columns of any Galaxy tabular data.
Example interactive plots at https://lazarus.name/demo/

Plotly.express makes a lot of clever design decisions.
Unfortunately, it gets totally confused with evalue columns because it thinks scientific notation like 5.00e-204 is a string or something.
Strange and probably uninformative axes and plots will probably result if you try a blast evalue column without transformation.
Note that all columns used for colour (legend) and the x/y axis tickmarks are truncated because they can squish up the plot.
.. is added at the end to show truncation.

A specialised version for 25 column Galaxy blastn search outputs is also available. It uses this code mostly, but adds a default header and auto-transformation of the evalue column -log10(x) to make them more like the bitscore
