What's new ?
-Jalview Version 2.08
-Editing can be locked to the selection area. - Any edits made within the locked area do not affect the rest of the alignment.
-Keyboard editing - press F2 to toggle cursor mode On / Off. For a full list - of keyboard controls, look here.
-Create sequence features from searches. - Previously, the regions of sequences highlighted as the result of - searches were added as new regions in the alignment. Now, the sequence region - selected by a search can be used to define named sequences features - attached to the sequence, rather than the alignment. -
-Sequence feature display and rendering has also been enhanced, with - the addition of sequence feature groups (which can be used to show - or hide a set of feature types en masse) and user defined - feature colours as well as transparency controls, using the Sequence Feature Settings - window. The Features file - has also been extended to accomodate these enhancements.
-Alignment annotation and colouring is also considerably - enhanced. Precalculated symbolic and quantitative annotations (text labels, - secondary structure symbols and multiple scalar graphs) can now be - loaded onto alignments via the Annotation - File. Additionally, the Annotation - Colouring dialog box allows an alignment to be coloured based on - any of the graphed quantities with which it is annotated.
-Rendering speed has been improved by disabling anti-aliasing via
- the Smooth Fonts
- option in the View
- menu (its default set in Preferences). In addition, response
- times when editing alignments can be reduced by turning off the automatic
- calculation of amino acid property Consensus (which has been
- reintroduced to the Calculate menu as Autocalculate Consensus).
