About

iDR stands for Ivan's Dendrogram Renderer and is a small command line utility which renders output files from hierarchical clustering performed by Eisen Cluster. It is not suited for exploratory purposes (like for example jTreeView), but rather for the final high-quality render for publication.

Features:
  • iDR renders column dendrogram, heatmap as well as column and row names in addition to a brief legend for each additional variable
  • iDR is easy to use: place files in correct folders and run the utility
  • iDR adds any number of additional user-defined color-coded variables
  • iDR's outputs an editable and freely scalable PostScript file

Limitations:
  • iDR is currently unable to render row dendrogram
  • iDR does not have a GUI
