- <strong>What's new in Jalview 2.10.1 ?</strong>
- </p>
- <p>
- Jalview 2.10.1 was released on 24th November 2016. Full details are
- in the <a href="releases.html#Jalview.2.10.1">Jalview 2.10.1
- Release Notes</a>, but the highlights are below. This is also the
- first release to include contributions from Kira Mourão, who
- joined Jalview's core development team in October 2016.
+ <strong>What's new in Jalview 2.10.5 ?</strong>
</p>
+ <p>Jalview 2.10.5 is a minor release that includes critical
+ patches for users working with Ensembl, RNA secondary structure
+ annotation, and those running Jalview on OSX with Java 10.</p>
<ul>
- <li><strong>More memory efficient</strong><br />We've slimmed
- down the consensus analysis data structures used by Jalview so
- even wider alignments can be worked with.</li>
- <li><strong>Select highlighted region</strong><br />Press 'B'
- or use the new menu option in the alignment window's Select menu
- to mark columns containing highlighted regions generated from
- structure selections, mouse-overs, or resulting from a Find
- operation.</li>
- <li><strong>New custom link mechanism for opening URLs
- for database cross references.</strong><br /> If you have customised URL
- links in your Jalview preferences, then you may already have seen
- the <a href="#warning"> warning dialog (see below).</a></li>
- <li><strong>New command line export option for BioJS
- MSAviewer</strong><br />A number of small bugs with the HTML export
- functions from the Jalview desktop were also fixed.</li>
- <li><strong>Small but significant changes to the
- physicochemical properties and consensus calculations</strong><br />Threonine
- is no longer considered a non-hydrophobic residue in the protein
- conservation calculation, and minor bugs addressed in PID and
- consensus colouring.</li>
- <li><strong>Correct display of disulphide bond
- features</strong><br /> In linked structure views, Jalview would
- highlight all residues between in addition to the two linked
- cysteines. The 'select columns by feature' function in the feature
- settings would also select all intermediate columns.
+ <li>Jalview's default memory limit increased to 1G. <br/>If you have
+ problems starting Jalview 2.10.5 and you have 1G or less
+ physical memory on your machine, you will need to <a
+ href="memory.html#memsetting">reduce the memory</a> allocated to
+ Jalview.
+ </li>
+ <li>EPS, PNG and SVG export now includes hidden sequence
+ markers, and representative sequences are marked in bold.</li>
+ <li>Ensembl Client updated for Ensembl Rest API v7.<br />The
+ latest Ensembl API is not backwards compatible with earlier
+ versions of Jalview, so if you require Ensembl functionality you
+ will need to install this release.
+ </li>
+ <li>Improved support for VIENNA extended dot-bracket notation
+ for RNA secondary structure.</li>
+ <li>Positional and selected region highlighting in VARNA
+ 'trimmed sequence' view made more reliable.</li>
</ul>

<p>
- <strong><a name="warning">Warning dialog about updating
- your configured URL links</a></strong><br /> In the desktop prior to Jalview
- 2.10.1, the only way to configure custom links for a particular
- database cross-reference for a sequence was to give it a name that <em>exactly</em>
- matched the database source, and a regular expression for filtering
- out any spurious matches generated when the custom linked was tested
- against the Sequence's ID string. Since the introduction of the
- $DB_ACCESSION$ token, however, $SEQUENCE_ID$ will not be used for
- database cross-reference accession strings, and if you have custom
- links configured, Jalview will raise a warning message so let you
- know that you may need to update your links to use $DB_ACCESSION$.
+ The full list of bugs fixed in this release can be found in the <a
+ href="releases.html#Jalview.2.10.5">2.10.5 Release Notes</a>. The
+ majority of bug fixes and improvements in 2.10.5 are due to Jalview users
+ contacting us via the jalview-discuss email list. Thanks to everyone
+ who took the time to help make Jalview better !

+ <p>
+ <strong>Jalview and Java 10</strong>
</p>
+ <p>This release addresses a critical bug for OSX users who are
+ running Jalview with Java 10 which can prevent files being saved
+ correctly through the 'Save As' dialog box.</p>
+ <em>Known Issues</em>
+ <ul>
+ <li>OSX: The 'Open File' dialog for Jalview's Groovy Console
+ appears with the title 'Save As', and attempting to select a file to load yields a FileNotFound exception.</br>The workaround is to first clear the 'Untitled' filename before selecting the file you wish to load.
+ </li>
+ <li>OSX: Links don't open when clicked on or via the Sequence or Alignment window popup menu.</li>
+ <li>OSX (Webstart): Jalview only displays old news feed items</li>
+ </ul>
