-<p><strong>Whats new</strong> </p>\r
-<p>If you can read this then you'll already have seen some of the recent changes \r
- made to Jalview.<br>\r
- Jalview takes advantage of some of the more recent user interface developments \r
- in the Java programming language. For instance Jalview is now a multi windowed \r
- application, this keeps all your Jalview windows neatly together in one main \r
- application window. </p>\r
-<p>If you were familiar with the original Jalview, here is a list of important \r
- features you should know about the current development:</p>\r
-<ul>\r
- <li>Editing sequences is no longer the default when mouse clicking the alignment. \r
- Instead, mouse clicking on the alignment will create a "selection region" \r
- which may be full sequences or groups of residues.</li>\r
- <li>To edit a sequence, the "Shift" key must be held down</li>\r
- <li>To edit groups, either the "Alt" key or the "Control" \r
- key must be held down.</li>\r
- <li>Colours maybe applied to the background, ie the whole alignment, or to selected \r
- regions. If the tickbox "Apply colour to all groups" is ticked (this \r
- is the defualt), then the colour will be applied to all groups.</li>\r
- <li>Use the right mouse button (apple and click on the mac) to define a selected \r
- region on the alignment as a new group. </li>\r
- <li>Conservation is automatically updated whenever the alignment is edited</li>\r
- <li>There is no "quick draw" option</li>\r
- <li>Edits can be undone! (and redone)</li>\r
-</ul>\r
