-<p><strong>View→Sequence Features</strong></p>\r
-<p>When this option is selected, sequence features extracted from the\r
- <a href="http://www.ebi.uniprot.org/">Uniprot</a> record for each\r
- sequence are displayed on the alignment.</p>\r
-<p>Currently, sequence features are rendered in red or blue, dependent\r
- upon their type:</p><ul>\r
- <li>Features associated with a particular residue are coloured\r
- red<br><em>e.g. an active site residue</em></li>\r
- <li>Features which span a region are coloured blue<br>\r
-<em>e.g. a region of sequence with known structure</em>\r
-</li>\r
-</ul></p>\r
-<p>More information about the feature is given in a tooltip, which is\r
- viewed by moving the mouse pointer over a sequence feature. The\r
- description associated with the feature will then be displayed in a small\r
- label near the pointer.</p>\r
-<p>After the Sequence Features option is selected, there may be some delay before\r
- the features are actually rendered, as jalview first determines if\r
- the sequences are contained in Uniprot and then retrieves any sequence\r
- records. This delay will normally only happen once for a particular\r
- set of sequences, as jalview caches uniprot records in a file in your home\r
- directory called '.jalview.uniprot.xml'.\r
-\r
- <p><strong>The Sequence Identification Process</strong>\r
-\r
- </p>\r
-<p>The first step in the procedure for matching uniprot IDs to\r
- sequences is to use the ID (name) of\r
- each sequence to retrieve Uniprot records directly.</p>\r
-<p>\r
- If a uniprot record (or set of records) is found for a sequence,\r
- then the sequence is aligned to the one in the Uniprot record\r
- to determine the correct start and end residue positions (which are\r
- displayed when the 'Show Full Sequence ID' option is set).\r
-</p>\r
-\r
-<p>If the alignment reveals differences between the sequence in the\r
- alignment and the one in the record, then Jalview will assume that\r
- the aligned sequence is not the one in the uniprot record.\r
-\r
- </p>\r
-\r
- <p> \r
- In some cases, the ID used to retrieve Uniprot records may be out of\r
- date and you will be notified of that a 100% match between the\r
- sequence and a Uniprot record was identified, but the sequence name\r
- must be manually changed (by right clicking on the sequence ID and selecting\r
- <strong>Sequence→Edit Name</strong>), before Jalview will show its sequence\r
- features.<ul>\r
- <li>remember to save your alignment if you have updated any of the\r
- sequence IDs!\r
- </li>\r
- </ul></p>\r

+ <p>
+ <strong>Sequence Features</strong>
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Jalview can colour parts of a sequence based on the presence of
+ sequence features - which may be retrieved from database records
+ (such as UniProt), the result of <a href="search.html">sequence
+ motif searches</a> or simply read from a <a href="featuresFormat.html">sequence
+ features file</a>. You can also <a href="creatinFeatures.html">create
+ features</a> from the results of searches or the current selection,
+ and <a href="editingFeatures.html">edit features</a> by double
+ clicking on them.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ <strong>Sequence Feature Colouring Styles</strong>
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ By default, Jalview will assign a color to each feature based on its
+ type. These colours can be changed from the <a
+ href="featuresettings.html">feature settings</a> and <a
+ href="editingFeatures.html">amend features</a> dialog boxes. Since
+ Jalview 2.5, it is also possible to define <a
+ href="featureschemes.html">feature colourschemes</a> to shade
+ features based on their associated scores or text labels.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ <strong>Sequence Feature Groups</strong>
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Since Jalview 2.08, sequence features assigned to a sequence can be
+ organised into groups, which may indicate that the features were all
+ retrieved from the same database (such as UniProt features), or
+ generated by the same analysis process (as might be specified in a <a
+ href="featuresFormat.html">sequence features file</a>).
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ <strong>Sequence Feature Inheritance</strong>
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Since Jalview 2.08, sequence features are <em>global</em> to a set
+ of sequences appearing (independently or together) in many different
+ alignments. Practically, this means features loaded onto one
+ alignment can be viewed in any alignments involving the same
+ sequences. The same sequence appears in different alignments when a
+ new alignment is generated by submitting an existing set of
+ sequences to one of the alignment or prediction web services, and
+ when sequences are copied and pasted into other alignment windows.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ <strong>View→Show Sequence Features</strong>
+ </p>
+ <p>Toggle the display of sequence features in this alignment. If
+ feature retrieval has not already been carried out, then Jalview
+ will automatically try to fetch sequence features (as described
+ below).</p>
+ <p>
+ <strong>View→Sequence Feature Settings...</strong>
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Once sequence features have been loaded, their display can be fully
+ controlled using the alignment window's <a
+ href="featuresettings.html">Sequence Feature Settings</a>
+ dialog box. Feature colour schemes and display parameters are unique
+ to a particular alignment, so it is possible to colour the same
+ sequence features differently in different alignment views.<br>
+ Since Jalview 2.1, it is possible to add <a href="dassettings.html">DAS
+ features</a> to an alignment via the DAS tabbed pane of the feature
+ settings window.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ <strong>View→Sequence ID Tooltip→Show
+ Non-Positional features</strong><br> <em>Only available in
+ application</em></br>
+ </p>
+ <p>Toggles the display of non-positional features in the sequence
+ ID tooltip, and whether they will be included when sequence features
+ are exported using "File→Export Features".</p>
+ <p>
+ Precalculated Sequence Features may be added to an alignment from
+ the command line, drag and drop, or from the "File→Load
+ Features / Annotations" menu item. See the <a
+ href="featuresFormat.html">Features File Format</a> for more
+ details.
