Export graphics to files

Biomedical Genomics Workbench supports export of graphics into a number of formats. This way, the visible output of your work can easily be saved and used in presentations, reports etc. The Export Graphics function (Image picture_16_h_p) is found in the Toolbar.

Biomedical Genomics Workbench uses a WYSIWYG principle for graphics export: What You See Is What You Get. This means that you should use the options in the Side Panel to change how your data, e.g. a sequence, looks in the program. When you export it, the graphics file will look exactly the same way.

It is not possible to export graphics of elements directly from the Navigation Area. They must first be opened in a view in order to be exported. To export graphics of the contents of a view:

        select tab of View | Graphics (Image picture_16_h_p) on Toolbar

This will display the dialog shown in figure 6.30.
