I cannot see such option -unique at all. Is it version specific in CNVnator or that's option from some BAM file preprocessing tool before using CNVnator?
Can anyone explain to me the output file of CNVnator ? I don't understand what are column 1,2 and3 at the end. In the Readme file it doesn't say anything about the last 3 columns.

Thanks :)

The output is pretty clearly defined in the README:
CNV_type coordinates CNV_size normalized_RD p-val1 p-val2 p-val3 p-val4 q0
normalized_RD -- normalized to 1.
p-val1 -- is calculated using t-test statistics.
p-val2 -- is from probability of RD values within the region to be in
the tails of gaussian distribution describing frequencies of RD values in bins.
p-val3 -- same as p-val1 but for the middle of CNV
p-val4 -- same as p-val2 but for the middle of CNV
q0 -- fraction of reads mapped with q0 quality
To have correct output at q0 field one need to use option -unique when extracting read mapping from bam/sam files.
Has anyone had trouble using the built-in visualization? I get the prompt to enter a specified region, enter the region, and then the prompt comes back (and continues to come back even after trying every format of entry). Like this below:
cnvnator -root my.root -view 100
'>chr11:150988001-150996400
'>11:150988001-150996400
'>11 150988001 150996400
'>chr11 150988001 150996400
'>...and it continues on like this until I have to terminate
If other folks have had this problem and resolved it, your insight would be much appreciated!
If you are using a server you need to ssh with ssh -X, otherwise you can't see the plot.

Can you please tell me how do u view the output files from CNVnator ? I ran CNVnator and got a .root file and tried to open it in the ROOT package - all I got were some graphs. How can we view the text file ? Thanks!
You have a few choices:
