-<p><strong>What's new ?</strong> </p>
-<p>If you are reading this then you will already have seen some of the recent changes
- made to Jalview.<br>
- Jalview takes advantage of some of the more recent user interface developments
- in the Java programming language. For instance Jalview is now a multi windowed
- application, this keeps all your Jalview windows neatly together in one main
- application window. </p>
-<p>If you were familiar with the original Jalview, here is a list of important
- features you should know about the current development:</p>
-<ul>
- <li>Editing sequences is no longer the default when mouse clicking the alignment.
- Instead, mouse clicking on the alignment creates a "selection region"
- which may be full sequences or groups of residues.</li>
- <li>To insert or edit the gaps in one sequence in alignment, the
- "Shift" key must be held down when dragging the mouse.</li>
- <li>To insert or edit gaps for a group of sequences, the
- "Alt" key (or in X windows the "Control"
- key) must be held down.</li>
- <li>Selecting colour schemes in the colour menu either sets just the
- "background" colourscheme for the alignment, or - when
- the tickbox "Apply colour to all groups" is ticked,
- applies the scheme to the background and all groups defined on the alignment.</li>
- <li>Use the right mouse button (apple and click on the Mac) whilst
- the pointer is within the selection area to access the "define" region menu to
- define a new region, give it a name, and change its colourscheme and display
- properties.</li>
- <li>Conservation is automatically updated whenever the alignment is edited</li>
- <li>There is no "quick draw" option</li>
- <li>Edits can be undone, and redone!</li>
-</ul>

+ <p>This is the first patch release for Jalview 2.10.4. It includes
+ the following new patches:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>HGVS nomenclature used for variant annotation retrieved
+ from Uniprot</li>
+ <li>Uniprot import fails for some sequences (Cannot import
+ features with multiple variant elements)</li>
+ <li>Clustal files with sequence positions in right-hand column
+ are now parsed correctly</li>
+ <li>Wrap view - export to SVG - IDs shown but not alignment
+ area in exported graphic</li>
+ <li>F2/Keyboard mode edits work when Overview window has input
+ focus</li>
+ <li>Windows specific fixes:
+ <ul>
+ <li>Annotation panel set too high when annotation added to
+ view</li>
+ <li>Updated search paths for Chimera default installation</li>

+ URL and links from a page viewed in Firefox or Chrome on
+ Windows is now fully supported.<br />

+ can be dragged.<br />
+ <strong>With Internet Explorer</strong>, only the currently open
+ URL in the browser can be dropped onto Jalview.
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ </li>
+ </ul>
+ <p>Highlights in the 2.10.4 series include:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>Numerous efficiency improvements in the renderer and overview when working with large alignments with lots of hidden columns</li>
+ <li>Use of HTTPS when connecting to Uniprot, Ensembl and other EBI web services</li>
+ <li>Critical patches for running Jalview on OSX with Java 10</li>
+ <li>Easier adjustment of the Alignment ID panel and Annotation panel</li>
+ <li>Improved support for mapping between 3D Structures and Uniprot Protein Sequences</li>
+ <li>Improved support for discovering CDS and transcripts for Proteins and Ensembl gene IDs</li>
+ <li>New buttons on the Structure Chooser for adding structures
+ to an existing view, and disabling automatic superposition
+ according to linked alignments</li>
+ <li>Annotation transfer between Chimera and Jalview <em>(formerly only
+ available in 'Experimental' mode)</em></li>
+ </ul>
