clean up large dotplots

[svedwards]

Hi David

Great tool, I'm really finding it useful. Can you suggest a way to clean up dotplots of large regions (e.g., whole genomes)? I can't seem to figure out how to get rid of the clutter and background dots and lines. My command is below and I'll attach the resulting plot. The target and query genomes are each about 1.2 Gb and I'd like to remove pretty much everything except for the blue dotplot lines, including the scaffold names on the x and y axes. Thanks for any suggestions. - Scott
