Adding tags to significant points in multitrait / multitrack QQ plots

[evatosco]

Hi! Thanks for this R package, I think it's precious and very useful.

I have been looking for a way to show SNP names or gene names of significant points (out of the diagonal line or considering a threshold in observed P-values, for example) in multitrait and multitrack QQ plots, just like the package can show gene names or SNP names in Manhattan plots. Unfortunately, I can't do it yet.

The "highlight" options do not cause an error when running the "CMplot qplot" function; it runs correctly, but no text is shown in the QQ plots. I guess the function just omits them when plotting something else than a Manhattan. They do affect the Manhattan plots correctly.

I was wondering if this option exists in the package, and I missed it, or if anyone knows a way to do it. I figured I could try to add the names manually, but I am not by far an R expert and I think that the resulting plots are not recognizable by other packages to manually add a text per point or something similar. If there's any way to do so, I would deeply appreciate some enlightening!

Thanks in advance! Best regards, Eva

Hi, thank you for the feedback. Sorry that the highlight function for SNP names or gene names is now only available to traditional rectangular-Manhattan plot.

Hi!

No problem! I needed confirmation that I did not miss it but instead, it does not exist for now. Are there any plans to include this option in the future?

Thanks!
