Hello
I have a question about the .tsv file "n peaks" column and its correlation with the corresponding EIC.
Sometimes, it appears that they do not correlate, for example- the "n peaks" column will indicate "0" peaks for a group when I can see a peak in the EIC (at 10^4 abundance, which for some peaks indicates "1" and not "0"). Is this caused by a default s/n value or threshold that I have somewhere in my workup?
As always, thank you for any help.

You see this effect if these features were not initially detected during feature detection ( i.e., they were below S/N threshold),
but filled in later by fillPeaks.

Interesting- so I should follow the npeaks read-out when the two (EIC and npeaks) don't agree?
