finding search results in Genome View

[Ware, Doreen]

Hi Dave,

I agree with you. The current version of Ensembl does not have that
flexibility for features.  The new Ensembl will though.  We hope to have the
new version up at the end of June.

Subject: finding search results in Genome View

When you search for a feature (marker C585 for example), either with BLAST
or by its name, the view of the BAC clone in Genome View always shows
the leftmost 50 kb of the clone.  Which in this example doesn't even
include the region where the feature is.  Besides which, 50 kb is a lot
of little rectangles to mouseover trying to find the feature you were
looking for, if it isn't one that's labeled.

It would be much better if Genome View could zoom in on the item found, like
GBrowse does, cf. http://wheat.pw.usda.gov/cgi-bin/gbrowse.
