This seems like a bug, it could be due to me having a large number of datasets in a collection.
I have a collection that is a list of 128 files that have been processed with CutAdapt.
If I go to operations on multiple datasets>select the collection>unhide datasets, nothing happens.
I can go to history options>unhide hidden datasets, which unhides all datasets in the history without a problem, but this is annoying if I only want to unhide the datasets in one collection.
Plus, when I do this action the datasets no longer have their original file names and are instead reported as “cutadapt on collection…” etc.
This is annoying if I want to make a paired list of the datasets based on file names.
Is there some workaround? Am I doing the process incorrectly?
Hi @LBrock
If you ran Cutadapt with an input of type paired collection (not nested), then the output passing QA filters will already be in a paired collection (nested).
Even if your data is not already paired (just two list collections with matching identifiers), you don’t need to extract datasets from a collection in order to create a new or rearranged collection.
For this use case, two lists > one paired list, try: Zip collections
Examples of both are in this shared history: Galaxy | Accessible History | test zip /unzip collections from cutadapt
If the collections don’t already have matching identifiers, you can relabel those. Extract the identifiers first as needed (or create your own mapping file), then relabel.
