+ Calculations +

+ Fixed incorrect value in BLOSUM 62 score + matrix - C->R should be '-3'
Old matrix restored + with this one-line groovy script:
jalview.analysis.scoremodels.ScoreModels.instance.BLOSUM62.@matrix[4][1]=3 +
Fixed + Jalview's treatment of gaps in PCA and substitution matrix + based Tree calculations.

In earlier versions + of Jalview, gaps matching gaps were penalised, and gaps + matching non-gaps penalised even more. In the PCA + calculation, gaps were actually treated as non-gaps - so + different costs were applied, which meant Jalview's PCAs + were different to those produced by SeqSpace.
Jalview + now treats gaps in the same way as SeqSpace (ie it scores + them as 0).

Enter the following in the + Groovy console to restore pre-2.10.2 behaviour:
+ jalview.analysis.scoremodels.ScoreMatrix.scoreGapAsAny=true + // for 2.10.1 mode
+ jalview.analysis.scoremodels.ScoreMatrix.scoreGapAsAny=false + // to restore 2.10.2 mode

Note: + these settings will affect all subsequent tree and PCA + calculations (not recommended)

+ Fixed off-by-one bug that affected + scaling of branch lengths for trees computed using + Sequence Feature Similarity. +

+ PCA calculation could hang when + generating output report when working with highly + redundant alignments +

+ Sort by features includes features to + right of selected region when gaps present on right-hand + boundary +
