Hovering over cell line shows data that is hard to see further

Closed this issue · 2 comments

So I'm playing with the site and noticed the following on the experiments page, e.g.:
http://www.ebi.ac.uk/gxa/experiments/E-MTAB-2706?_specific=on&queryFactorType=CELL_LINE&queryFactorValues=&geneQuery=ASPM&exactMatch=true&serializedFilterFactors=

Hovering over the cell line element produces a table with details. The table is rather long so it doesn't fit on a laptop screen. In my browser (new Chrome) there isn't anything keeping the table on the screen after I hover off the element, so I can't scroll down and actually see the data inside it.

Perhaps clicking on the row could set the table element to "visible" until a click event or so.

We’re aware of the issue and we’re looking at some alternatives. Currently we use jQuery-UI to show our tooltips but we’ll probably use Bootstrap’s popovers which will allow to dismiss the tooltip manually. This will also be an improvement for touch screen interfaces. We’ll keep the issue open until the tooltips are reimplemented.

Thanks for the tip!

Dear Atlas developer,
Thank you for your feedback and your hard work in this problem. I’m closing the issue now for reasons you’re well aware of. ;)
