Hello guys, I have generated a SCNA plot using an R script (gaiaCNVplot), but i found a problem in the x axis which indicate the chromosome numbers and shown in the below figure. The chromosome numbers overlap, so is there a way for the chromosome numbers to be spread out or at least legible ?

Hello, the simplest thing to try is to make the use of width when you are generating the output file. For example:

pdf("out.pdf", width = 16, height = 5.5)
  <code>
dev.off()

@ Hi Kevin, i mean if there is a way to lined up these chromosomes as i can compare each chromosome with any other chromosome from another stage for example visually ?
