corrected p values more accurate than 5 decimal points dkueltz  2018-01-22 18:17
 
Hi Nick, Brendan,
In the comparison/ MSstats results table corrected p values are displayed up to a 0.00001 accuracy - anything smaller is set to 0. This is not ideal for creating volcano plots from the exported data since all p values <0.00001 will cluster at -logp upper threshold of 5. Is there any way that p values can be exported for MSstats comparison results with greater accuracy (i.e. up to 15 digest past the decimal point or even more)? This would render construction of volcano plots from those data more accurate.
Thanks for any suggestions,
Dietmar

In Skyline 4.1 we added a feature where you can right-click on any numeric column in the Document Grid and choose "Number Format" to specify a different format for that column.

Also, if you go to:
File > Export > Report
and choose "Invariant" for the Language then all numbers will be formatted to the full precision
