28 <strong> RNA Helices Colouring </strong>
31 An RNA alignment loaded from a Stockholm file can be coloured based
32 on its helices. The helices are determined from the secondary
33 structure line in the Stockholm file (#GC SS_cons) written in WUSS
34 notation that specifies base pairing. See <a

39 files and WUSS notation.
41 Select "Colour"
42 <strong>→</strong> " By RNA Helices" to colour the
43 alignment by RNA helices.
50 <li>Colours are generated randomly for the number of helices
51 present. Reselect the "By RNA Helices" option to generate another
52 set of random colors.</li>
