General Plot UX changes:

• image here
• Reorder plot colors: Reorder plot colors to increase contrast #88
• Move download button on plots down below the legend (inline with axis options)
  • for "My Dashboard" plot, this button is gone.. is that intentional?
• rearrange axis options
  • should this apply to "My Dashboard" plot too?
  • "y axis" is first (more adjacent to the y-axis)
  • "x axis" below x axis (inline with y-axis dropdown and download button)
  • "stack by" is above the legend
• Wording changes:
  • change "Stack by" to "Group by"
  • change "Unknown" to "Not specified" (Enhance portal plot tooltips and change 'unknown' to 'not specified' #89 ) unknown value
    • all locations of unknowns
      
      
• Update plot tooltips to include the x axis, y axis, and group by selections
  • Make plot tooltips wide enough for text
    • e.g. "L1000 mRNA profiling assay (provisional OBI term)" doesn't currently fit in tooltip but fits in
• Change ‘unknown’ tooltip to explain what unknown means
  • unknown brick?
  • unknown axis label?
• (provisional OBI term) should not be displayed. Users do not care
  • not going to be changed
• curate assay terms to not all end in "assay"
  • not going to be changed
• Get rid of ‘other’. Just plot everything. We can repeat colors and scroll the legend (Change 'other' in plots #87 )
  • is all data shown in legend without a scroll currently?
  • should this apply to x axis also?
    • graph should not scroll along the x axis
    • if graph gets too wide we can add asterisk with tooltip saying the rest of the data is not included
