Re: [Gmod-ajax] Show labels in collapsed displayMode?

[Vaneet L. <van...@uc...>]

Ok, that's what I thought, just checking.  That is an interesting tool Biodalliance has, seems to be what we're trying to recreate...more or less.

Thanks,

Vaneet

>Thanks for those tips.  Can you tell me how the collapsed mode works?  For example, when there are multiple mRNA models in normal mode that collapse to one in collapsed mode, is it simply showing the longest possible transcript with the union of all possible exon and inner segments?

It is not really doing anything intelligent, it simply plots all transcripts at y-coordinate 0.

This is why in most cases, drawing labels and having mouseovers is a non-sense behavior in collapsed mode. The ChromHMM track is a nice special case where the collapsing gives a simple row of chromatin states though, so mouseovers and clicks are manually added via config

There is perhaps a good need to make a smarter system. It is often overwhelming for every gene to have all transcript isoforms displayed all the time. Most people may be satisfied to show the union of possible exon/inner segments. Biodalliance has a mode kind of like this (the genes track when you visit here https://www.biodalliance.org/ has this enabled)

Also add

            disableCollapsedClick: false,

See https://github.com/GMOD/jbrowse/blob/master/setup.sh#L208

for how this particular track is setup

You can add a "enableCollapsedMouseover": true to get the right click on the collapsed tracks. The ChromHMM track in our volvox demo uses this

I am not sure we have feature labels in collapsed mode but there is a mouseover

Hello,



Is there a way to show feature labels in collapsed displayMode? For a certain track that has many transcripts our group likes the way collapsed mode appears to shrink it down into one consensus gene model but of course since it’s collapsed the feature labels are gone, anyway to leave them on?  Also I noticed the option menu when you right click on the feature in normal mode is gone from collapsed mode, is there any way to bring that option back when it’s collapsed so you can still right click on the feature to bring up those same options?



Thanks,



Vaneet
