+Cursor Mode
+
+
+
+ Cursor Mode
+
+ Cursor mode is a new feature in Jalview 2.08, and allows more
+ precise selection and editing of alignments through the use of the
+ keyboard for both navigation and the input of editing and selection
+ commands.
+
+ F2 Toggles between normal and cursor editing modes. When in
+ cursor mode, a black cursor appears in the residue area of the
+ alignment, and any mouse clicks on that area will move the cursor to
+ that position (this means that the region selection menu is
+ unavailable in cursor mode).
+
+
+ Navigation
+
+ - Cursor keys - Move cursor around the alignment.
+
+
+ - S - Type a number x then press 'S' to jump to sequence x.
+
+
+ - C - Type a number x then press 'C' to jump to column x.
+
+
+ - P - Type a number x then press 'P' to jump to position x in
+ current sequence.
+
+
+ - 65,82<return> - Quick jump to column 65, sequence 82
+
+
+
+ Defining Regions
+
+ - Q - Define the top left corner of the selection area
+
+
+ - M - Define the bottom right corner of the selection area
+
+
+
+ Editing The Alignment
+
+ - Space - Insert a gap at the cursor position.
To
+ insert 12 spaces at the current cursor, type 12 before pressing
+ Space.
To group insert, hold control or shift together
+ with space.
+
+
+
+ - Delete (or backspace) - Delete a gap at the cursor
+ position.
To delete 12 spaces at the current cursor, type
+ 12 before pressing Delete (or backspace).
To group
+ delete, hold down control or shift together with Delete (or
+ backspace).
