Before I report this as a bug can someone show me the proper way to add metadata using the `AddMetaData` function.

I first read a file that is new line delimited with the meta data labels I want using read table. The ftimecell_columns.txt file looks like this:

    "12wks"
    "12wks"
    "12wks"
    "12wks"
    "12wks"
    ...

So I do this command to make the dataframe:

    timecell_col <- read.table("~/Projects/FetalPancreas/timecell_columns.txt", header=FALSE, sep="\n")

and then this to AddMetaData:

    AddMetaData(object = scfp, metadata = timecell_col, col.name = 'time.cell')

However, when I do:

    head(x = scfp@meta.data)

All I see is the original meta data values:

               orig.ident nCount_RNA nFeature_RNA
    GSM2978830   scfetpan     382565         5080
    GSM2978831   scfetpan     634726         4932
    GSM2978832   scfetpan     565912         4501
    GSM2978833   scfetpan     717152         5117
    GSM2978834   scfetpan     207659         3508
    GSM2978835   scfetpan     869148         5055

Am I reading the data in correctly?

Any help would be appreciated!

Is that your exact command line?

Not

    scfp <- AddMetaData(object = scfp, metadata = timecell_col, col.name = 'time.cell')
