37 <title>Creating Sequence Features</title>
40 <strong>Creating Sequence Features</strong>
41 <p>Jalview can create sequence features from the matches of a <a
42 href="search.html">regular expression search</a>, or from the currently
43 selected area via the <strong>"selection→Create
44 sequence feature"</strong> entry in the <a href="../menus/popupMenu.html">selection area popup menu</a>. In both
45 cases, the <strong>Create Features</strong> dialog box will then be
47 <p><img src="crnewfeature.gif"></p>
48 <p>Select or enter the attributes for the features being created,
49 and then press OK to create the new features.</p>
50 <p>Each attribute is described below:
52 <li><strong>Sequence Feature Name</strong>
53 <p>Either give the new features a new name or use the menu to
54 re-use an existing feature name.</p>
56 <li><strong>Feature group</strong>
57 <p>Enter a new group name, or re-use an existing group from the
60 <li><strong>Feature Colour</strong>
61 <p>Keep the existing colour for this feature's name and group, or
62 select the colour box to open a colour chooser to pick a different one.</p>
64 <li><strong>Description</strong>
65 <p>Enter a description for all the features being created. Each
66 feature defined on a sequence may have its own description that will be
67 displayed in the tooltip for the feature in that region.</p>
