Sequence Features
+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 sequence motif +searches or simply read from a sequence +features file. You can also create +features from the results of searches or the current selection, and edit features by double clicking on +them.
+Sequence Feature Colouring Styles
+By default, Jalview will assign a color to each feature based on +its type. These colours can be changed from the feature settings and amend features dialog boxes. Since +Jalview 2.5, it is also possible to define feature +colourschemes to shade features based on their associated scores or text +labels.
+Sequence Feature Groups
+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 sequence features file).
+Sequence Feature Inheritance
+Since Jalview 2.08, sequence features are global 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.
+View→Show Sequence Features
+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).
+View→Sequence Feature Settings...
+Once sequence features have been loaded, their display can be
+fully controlled using the alignment window's Sequence Feature Settings 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.
+Since Jalview 2.1, it is possible to add DAS
+features to an alignment via the DAS tabbed pane of the feature settings
+window.
View→Sequence ID Tooltip→Show
+Non-Positional features
+Only available in application
+
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".
+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 Features File Format for more details.
