- What's new in Jalview 2.10.2 ? -

This August 2018 release of Jalview introduces new user interface features, improved and more extensible tree and PCA analysis, more robust 3D structure viewing with UCSF Chimera and an updated service client for JABAWS. The full list of bug fixes and new features can be found in the 2.10.2 Release Notes, but the - highlights are below. + What's new in Jalview 2.10.5 ?

Jalview 2.10.5 is a minor release that includes critical + patches for users working with Ensembl, and RNA secondary structure + annotation.

New dialog and faster and more - configurable Tree and PCA calculations
Menu entries for - calculating PCA and different types of tree have been replaced by - a single Calculations - dialog box. The underlying implementation for the PCA and tree - calculations have been made faster and more memory efficient.
Extensible score models
A new - framework has also been created for the score models used to - calculate distances between sequences and shade alignments. This - framework allows import of substitution matrices in NCBI and - AAIndex format.
- PCA Bug Fixes. Jalview's implementation of PCA - differed in its treatment of gaps and non-standard residues. The - BLOSUM62 matrix also included a typo that affected results. See the - 2.10.2 release note - about score model bugs for details and how to reinstate legacy - behaviour.
Update to JABAWS 2.2
Jalview's - alignment, protein conservation analysis, and protein disorder and - RNA secondary structure prediction services are now provided by JABAWS 2.2. - Several of the programs provided as JABAWS 2.2 services have been - updated, so their options and parameters have changed.
URL linkouts to other bioinformatics - databases
New preferences for opening web pages for - database cross-references via the UK Elixir's EMBL-EBI's MIRIAM - database and identifiers.org services.
Showing and hiding regions
Hide insertions in the - PopUp menu has changed its behaviour. Prior to 2.10.2, columns - were only shown or hidden according to gaps in the sequence under - the popup menu. Now, only columns that are gapped in all selected - sequences as well as the sequence under the popup menu are hidden, - and column visibility outside the selected region is left as is. - This makes it easy to filter insertions from the alignment view - (just select the region containing insertions to remove) without - affecting the rest of the hidden columns.
Recent search history for Find, PDBe and - Uniprot
Easily repeat a previous search for Find and the free - text search system (for querying Uniprot and the PDBe).
Improved Overview Window
The alignment overview is now easier - to use when working with alignments of more than 5000 rows and - columns, and features a new pop-up menu that allows hidden regions - to be excluded from the overview. It also works with CDS/Protein - alignments and MSA views in wrapped mode.
3D Structure
Jalview's communication - with UCSF Chimera has been made more robust, particularly when - working with many structures and long sequences. Regions in - structures that correspond to hidden regions in an alignment view - are now left un-coloured, making it easier to highlight specific - features in 3D. See below for experimental - features for exchanging annotation between Chimera and Jalview.
EPS, PNG and SVG export now includes hidden sequence + markers, and representative sequences are marked in bold.
Ensembl Client updated for Ensembl Rest API v7.
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. +
Improved support for VIENNA extended dot-bracket notation + for RNA secondary structure
Positional and selected region highlighting in VARNA + 'trimmed sequence' view now more reliable

- Scripting
New groovy examples - demonstrate Jalview 2.10.2 APIs for creation of data-driven - colourschemes, and custom alignment file handlers. The FeatureAnnotationWorker - introduced in Jalview 2.10 has also been refactored to allow - efficient counting across multiple feature types. Please be aware - that feature counter scripts created for earlier versions will not - execute in Jalview 2.10.2. -

- Experimental Features -

- This release of Jalview introduces an Experimental Features - option in the Jalview Desktop's Tools menu that allows you - to try out features that are still in development. To access the - experimental features below - first enable the Tools→Enable - Experimental Features option, and then restart Jalview. -

Annotation transfer between Chimera and Jalview
Two - new entries in - the Chimera viewer's Chimera menu allow positional annotation to - be exchanged between Chimera and Jalview.

- + The full list of bugs fixed in this release can be found in the 2.10.5 Release Notes. The majority of improvement 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 do this !

Jalview and Java 10

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. The 'Save As' dialog for + Jalview's Groovy Console remains affected - we hope to address this + in the next major release.
