I really like the way how data is represented in .qzv files for alpha and beta diversity analysis with direct links to download boxplots and statistical results as CSV files.
However, it would be also great to have a direct link to the raw data behind the plots (e.g. values of shannon diversity behind the plots showing results of shannon-group-significance). From my point of view this would be much more convenient than exporting the data from an archive .qza file.
In addition, I was wondering if it would be elaborate to change the PDF download option for beta distance boxplots into SVG as it is already for alpha diversity boxplots. This would make subsequent customizations of the boxplots much easier.
Okay! We could make that happen, but first, what visualizations do you have in mind? Seems like alpha-group-significance is one of them, but maybe you are thinking of other visualizations as well? Once you respond with a concrete list of visualizations you have in mind, I will create support tickets on our issue tracker(s) (e.g. alpha-group-significance would get logged under q2-diversity's issue tracker). You are also welcome to create those tickets directly, but it is probably less work for you to just follow up here.
I completely agree! So much so that I actually already had an issue open to track this! The open issue is a bit open-ended, but I think adding SVG support would make sense there.
This is on the same lines as the previous post, but is there a way to download the svg for the alpha diversity rarefaction plot. I've exported the underlying *.qzv and have access to the csv files, but I'm curious if there is a way to download the plot itself, instead having to take a snapshot of it. I can't seem to locate the "Download SVG" functionality for the rarefaction plot.
