ClusterView cannot display columns containing multiple values in Phy 2.1 #1402

Closed

Description

@FranciscoNaveros

The ClusterView window in Phy 2.1 is not able to display a column containing multiple values.

In previous versions of Phy, it was possible to create a column in the ClusterView by assigning multiple values to the same tag. In Phy 2.1, this no longer works, and the column appears empty.

One possible workaround would be to split the information across multiple columns, but this requires a significant amount of additional space in the ClusterView.

Would it be possible to restore this functionality?

    Thanks — confirmed as a Phy 2.1 regression. A fix is available in #1403.

    Could you try it with the development versions?

    git clone https://github.com/cortex-lab/phylib.git
    git clone --branch agent/fix-multivalue-cluster-metadata https://github.com/cortex-lab/phy.git
    cd phy
    uv sync --dev
    uv pip install --editable ../phylib
    uv run phy template-gui /path/to/params.py

    Please let us know whether the column displays correctly.
