23 <p><strong>What's new ?</strong></p>
24 <p>Jalview 2.5.1 is a bug fix release for the 2.5 version of

26 history</a> for the bugs that this release resolves.</p>
27 <p><strong>Highlights in Jalview Version 2.5</strong></p>
29 Linked viewing of nucleic acid sequences and structures
31 Automatic Scrolling option in View menu to display the currently
32 highlighted region of an alignment.
34 Order an alignment by sequence length, or using the average score or
35 total feature count for each sequence.
37 Shading features by score or associated description
39 Subdivide alignment and groups based on identity of selected
40 subsequence (Make Groups from Selection).
42 New hide/show options including Shift+Control+H to hide everything but
43 the currently selected region.
46 <em>Jalview Desktop:</em>
48 Fetch DB References capabilities and UI expanded to support retrieval
49 from DAS sequence sources
51 Enable or disable non-positional feature and database references in
52 sequence ID tooltip from View menu in application.
54 Group-associated consensus, sequence logos and conservation plots
56 Symbol distributions for each column can be exported and visualized as
61 New webservice for submitting sequences and IDs to
62 <a href="webServices/index.html#envision2">Envision2</a>
65 Improved VAMSAS synchronization and sharing of selections.
70 Middle button resizes annotation row height
72 New Parameters - including default tree display settings.
74 Non-positional features displayed in ID tooltip
77 <p><strong>Issues Resolved (a select list)</strong></p>
80 Source field in GFF files parsed as feature source rather than
83 Non-positional features are now included in sequence feature and gff
84 files (controlled via non-positional feature visibility in tooltip).
86 URL links generated for all feature links (bugfix)
88 Codons containing ambiguous nucleotides translated as 'X' in peptide
91 Match case switch in find dialog box works for both sequence ID and
92 sequence string and query strings do not have to be in upper case to
93 match case-insensitively.
95 Jalview Annotation File generation/parsing consistent with
96 documentation (e.g. Stockholm annotation can be exported and
99 Find incrementally searches ID string matches as well as subsequence
100 matches, and correctly reports total number of both.
103 <em>Desktop Issues</em>
105 Better handling of exceptions during sequence retrieval
107 PDB files retrieved from URLs are cached properly
109 Sequence description lines properly shared via VAMSAS
111 Sequence fetcher fetches multiple records for all data sources
113 Ensured that command line das feature retrieval completes before
114 alignment figures are generated.
116 Reduced time taken when opening file browser for first time.
118 User defined group colours properly recovered from Jalview projects.
