Changing the Gradient Color and Scale

 

Overview

At the top of the color matrix, matrix tree and two way matrix tree plots is a legend. The legend consists of a color gradient and a corresponding expression level scale. The scale shows the minimum, middle and maximum expression values mapped on the plot.

Each colored tile on the plot represents the expression level of that gene (column name) for that sample (row name). The color of a tile is determined by the color gradient at that expression level.
