create() ignores do.transpose=FALSE

[smgoggin10]

My data is already in rows=cells, cols=genes format, so I do not want internal transposition. My cell.attrs align to my rows and my gene.attrs align to my cols.

Running the following in loomR v0.2.1.9:

loomR::create(
filename = paste0(PARENT_PATH, "/cns_mc.loom"), 
data = protein.concat.transform, 
gene.attrs = panel_in, 
cell.attrs = metadata_in,
do.transpose = FALSE
)

Prints in console (when I manually transpose it beforehand - making it rows=genes, cols=cells - to get it to still make the file as I intend):

Transposing input data: loom file will show input columns (cells) as rows and input rows (features) as columns
