+ <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>

+ <em>Sequence Feature Creation was introduced in Jalview Version
+ 2.2</em>
