- Sequence feature colour schemes
-
- Jalview can visualize annotation present on parts of a sequence by
- overlaying colours according to the annotation present at each
- position. It allows features to be colored either according to type,
- or for a particular type, according to an individual feature's
- associated label or score. The Feature
- Settings dialog box controls the order and display of each
- sequence annotation type, and also allows the colour scheme used for
- the the feature to be changed via the 'Graduated Colour'
- option in the sequence feature pop-up menu (obtained by
- right-clicking on a sequence feature).
+ Visualisation of Sequence Features
Jalview can visualize sequence features - the positional
+ annotation present on parts of a sequence, as colours overlaid on
+ corresponding positions in the alignment. Features may be coloured
+ either according to their type, or for a particular type, according to
+ each feature's associated label, score, or other attributes.
+ The Feature Settings dialog box
+ controls the order and display of each feature type, and
+ also allows filters and colour schemes to be configured.
+ The Graduated Feature Colour dialog box has the following
- controls:
-
Graduated feature
- colour scheme settings dialog box
-
-
-
Set the threshold using the slider or
- type it in to the text box. The threshold cannot be set outside
- the available range of feature scores.
- Icon styles for graduated feature styles
-
- When a graduated colourscheme is applied to a feature, it is
- indicated in the feature settings or amend feature dialog box by the
- following types of icon:
-
Type of Colouring | -Icon | -
Graduated colour by Feature Score | -- |
Graduated colour thresholded (less than) by - feature Score | -- |
Graduated colour thresholded (greater than) by - feature Score | -- |
Colour by Feature Label (may also be - thresholded) | -- |
The - current threshold is given in the icon's tooltip. - | -
The Feature Display Settings has the following controls: +
Colour
+
+ Filters
Any number of filter
+ conditions may be specified to select features based on one or more
+ attributes. The join condition specifies whether all
+ filters must apply (And) or whether any one
+ filter must apply (Or) for a feature to be
+ selected.
+
The filters available depend on the type of attribute:
++ The filters and colour schemes active for a particular feature type + are shown in the Colour and Configuration columns in + the feature settings dialog. Styles and filters can be saved as a + Jalview Feature Colours file, and are also exported and imported via Jalview Feature files. + +
+ Icon styles for feature rendering styles

+
+ When a graduated colour scheme is applied to a feature according to
+ the value of a particular attribute, it is indicated in the feature
+ settings or amend feature dialog box by the following types of icon:

Graduated colour by Feature Score | ++ |
Graduated colour thresholded (less than) by + feature Score | ++ |
