Jalview can create sequence features from the matches of a regular expression search, or from the currently +selected area via the "selection→Create +sequence feature" entry in the selection area popup menu. In both +cases, the Create Features dialog box will then be +opened:
+
Select or enter the attributes for the features being created, +and then press OK to create the new features.
+Each attribute is described below: +
Either give the new features a new name or use the menu to + re-use an existing feature name.
+Enter a new group name, or re-use an existing group from the + pull-down menu.
+Keep the existing colour for this feature's name and group, or + select the colour box to open a colour chooser to pick a different one.
+Enter a description for all the features being created. Each + feature defined on a sequence may have its own description that will be + displayed in the tooltip for the feature in that region.
+Sequence Feature Creation was introduced in Jalview Version 2.2
