- What's new in Jalview 2.10.4b1 ?
+ Jalview 2.11 - major and minor new features
- This is the first patch release for Jalview 2.10.4. It includes
- the following new patches:
+ Jalview 2.11 introduces support for loading VCF files, and new
+ filters and shading models for sequence features. Under the hood,
+ we've addressed many bugs, and also made some important changes in
+ the way the Jalview desktop is installed and launched.
- - HGVS nomenclature used for variant annotation retrieved
- from Uniprot
- - Uniprot import fails for some sequences (Cannot import
- features with multiple variant elements)
- - Clustal files with sequence positions in right-hand column
- are now parsed correctly
- - Wrap view - export to SVG - IDs shown but not alignment
- area in exported graphic
- - F2/Keyboard mode edits work when Overview window has input
- focus
- - Windows specific fixes:
-
- - Annotation panel set too high when annotation added to
- view
- - Updated search paths for Chimera default installation
- - Windows File Shortcuts can be dragged onto the Jalview
- Desktop
- - Drag URL from Chrome, Firefox, IE to Jalview desktop on
- Windows doesn't open file:
Dragging the currently open
- URL and links from a page viewed in Firefox or Chrome on
- Windows is now fully supported.
- If you are using Edge, only links in the page
- can be dragged.
- With Internet Explorer, only the currently open
- URL in the browser can be dropped onto Jalview.
-

-
- Highlights in the 2.10.4 series include:
-
- - Numerous efficiency improvements in the renderer and overview when working with large alignments with lots of hidden columns
- - Use of HTTPS when connecting to Uniprot, Ensembl and other EBI web services
- - Critical patches for running Jalview on OSX with Java 10
- - Easier adjustment of the Alignment ID panel and Annotation panel
- - Improved support for mapping between 3D Structures and Uniprot Protein Sequences
- - Improved support for discovering CDS and transcripts for Proteins and Ensembl gene IDs
- - New buttons on the Structure Chooser for adding structures
- to an existing view, and disabling automatic superposition
- according to linked alignments
- - Annotation transfer between Chimera and Jalview (formerly only
- available in 'Experimental' mode)
+ - VCF Support. Proteins and genomic contigs with
+ chromosomal location annotation (such as protein coding genes
+ retrieved from Ensembl) can be annotated with variants imported
+ from a local VCF file.
+ - The Jalview Launcher and Update System
+ Jalview's new installation model means you'll only need to
+ download and install Jalview once. After installation, Jalview
+ will automatically keep itself up to date. The launcher also sets
+ Jalview's memory automatically, so you'll never again have to
+ manually configure Java's memory settings.
We are grateful to
+ Install4J who provided us with a free license for their
+ installation system, and Jalview's over the air update system is
+ via Getdown.
- The full list of bugs fixed in this release can be found in the 2.10.4
- Release Notes.
+ The full list of bugs fixed in this release can be found in the 2.11 Release Notes.
+
+
+ Jalview and Java 11, 13, and onwards
+ Java 11 provides improved performance and better OS
+ integration, so we now recommend users select our Java 11 Jalview
+ distribution rather than the legacy Java 8 build.
+ Known Issues - update for 211
+
+ - OSX: The 'Open File' dialog for Jalview's Groovy Console
+ appears with the title 'Save As', and attempting to select a file
+ to load yields a FileNotFound exception.The workaround is to first
+ clear the 'Untitled' filename before selecting the file you wish
+ to load.
+
+ - OSX: Links don't open when clicked on or via the Sequence
+ or Alignment window popup menu.
+ - OSX (Webstart): Jalview only displays old news feed items
