modMetaName: Modify the display name of metadata

In SGDDNB/ShinyCell: Shiny Interactive Web Apps for Single-Cell Data

Modify the display name of metadata

Description

Modify the display name of metadata. It is possible that the original metadata name is not so informative e.g "orig.ident" or too long e.g. "seurat_clusters" and users want to shorten the way they are displayed on the shiny app. This function allows users to specify display names for metadata i.e. the names that will be displayed on the shiny app. Note that showLegend shows the display name instead of the actual name.

Usage

modMetaName(scConf, meta.to.mod, new.name)

Arguments

scConf	shinycell config data.table
meta.to.mod	metadata for which to modify the display name. Users can either use the actual metadata column names or display names. Multiple metadata can be specified. It is reccomended to use the original metadata column names to reduce confusion.
new.name	new display names for the corresponding metadata

Value

updated shinycell config data.table
