745 Jalview's treatment of gaps in PCA and substitution matrix
746 based Tree calculations.<br /> <br />In earlier versions
747 of Jalview, gaps matching gaps were penalised, and gaps
748 matching non-gaps penalised even more. In the PCA
749 calculation, gaps were actually treated as non-gaps - so
750 different costs were applied, which meant Jalview's PCAs
751 were different to those produced by SeqSpace.<br />Jalview
752 now treats gaps in the same way as SeqSpace (ie it scores
753 them as 0). <br /> <br />Enter the following in the
754 Groovy console to restore pre-2.10.2 behaviour:<br />
