Error running aggregateCount #198

Description

@jonoave

Hello,

I’m trying tor run the analysis on GeoMx data following the guide here: https://bioconductor.org/packages/3.14/workflows/vignettes/GeoMxWorkflows/inst/doc/GeomxTools_RNA-NGS_Analysis.html#

I checked out GitHub and found some replies suggesting to email the support.

I’m having some issues with this particular step at 4.3: Create Gene_level Counts.

# Check how many unique targets the object has
length(unique(featureData(geomx_data_QC)[["TargetName"]]))
#> [1] 19963
geomx_data_QC <- NanoStringGeoMxSet(geomx_data_QC, check=FALSE)

# collapse to targets
target_geomx_data_QC <- aggregateCounts(geomx_data[["exprs"]])

Trying to run aggregateCounts return this error message:

> target_geomx_data_QC <- aggregateCounts(geomx_data_QC)
Error in h(simpleError(msg, call)) : 
  error in evaluating the argument 'args' in selecting a method for function 'do.call': invalid first argument

Some information on the geoMx_data_QC object:
