<em>VIEW_DEF</em> allows the current view to be named according to the
first argument after the tab character. If a second argument is
properties.

<p>
- <em>VIEW_SETREF</em> takes either a single sequence ID string, or a
- numeric index (second argument), and attempts to assign a
- corresponding sequence as the <a href="../features/refsequence.html">reference
+ <em>VIEW_SETREF</em> marks the first sequence in the alignment, or
+ alternately, the one specified by the most recent <em>SEQUENCE_REF</em>
+ statement, as the <a href="../features/refsequence.html">reference
sequence</a> for the alignment.
</p>
- <em>VIEW_HIDECOLS</em> takes either a single argument consisting of a
- comma separated series of integer pairs like
- <em>3-4</em>. These integer pairs define columns (starting from the
- left-hand column 0) that should be marked as hidden in the alignment
- view.
+ <p>
+ <em>HIDE_INSERTIONS</em>This command hides all gapped positions in the
+ current target sequence. Any columns already hidden will be
+ re-displayed.<br />
+ <br>The current target sequence is either the one specified by
+ the most recent <em>SEQUENCE_REF</em> statement, the alignment's
+ reference sequence, or the first sequence in the alignment.
</p>
<p>
- <em>HIDE_INSERTIONS</em> takes a either a single sequence ID or a
- numeric index, or no arguments. This command marks all gapped
- positions in a specified sequence (either the one located by the
- arguments, the current SEQUENCE_REF, or the reference sequence for the
- view).
+ <em>VIEW_HIDECOLS</em> modifies the visibility of columns in the view.
+ The statement is followed by a single argument consisting of a comma
+ separated series of single integers or integer pairs (like <em>3-4</em>).
+ These define columns (starting from the left-hand column 0) that
+ should be marked as hidden in the alignment view.
