+<strong>Creating Sequence Features</strong>
+<p>Jalview can create sequence features from the matches of a <a
+ href="search.html">regular expression search</a>, or from the currently
+selected area via the <strong>"selection→Create
+sequence feature"</strong> entry in the <a href="../menus/popupMenu.html">selection area popup menu</a>. In both
+cases, the <strong>Create Features</strong> dialog box will then be
+opened:</p>
+<p><img src="crnewfeature.gif"></p>
+<p>Select or enter the attributes for the features being created,
+and then press OK to create the new features.</p>
+<p>Each attribute is described below:
+<ul>
+ <li><strong>Sequence Feature Name</strong>
+ <p>Either give the new features a new name or use the menu to
+ re-use an existing feature name.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li><strong>Feature group</strong>
+ <p>Enter a new group name, or re-use an existing group from the
+ pull-down menu.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li><strong>Feature Colour</strong>
+ <p>Keep the existing colour for this feature's name and group, or
+ select the colour box to open a colour chooser to pick a different one.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li><strong>Description</strong>
+ <p>Enter a description for all the features being created. Each
+ feature defined on a sequence may have its own description that will be
+ displayed in the tooltip for the feature in that region.</p>
+ </li>
+</ul>
+</p><p><em>Sequence Feature Creation was introduced in Jalview Version 2.2</em></p>
