Track lists
Tracks are saved as files in the Navigation Area with specific icons representing each track type, e.g. an annotation track (
).
To visualize several tracks together, a Track List (
) can be created. Track lists can be created in different ways. One way is via the menu bar:
File | New | Track List ()
Another way is to use the Track Tool Create Track List (
). Finally, tracks can be created using the button labeled Create Track List that is found in the top right corner of the open track in the view area. Figure 24.1 shows an example of a track list including a track with mapped reads at the top, followed by a variant detection track, and in the lower part of the figure, the reference sequence with CDS annotations.
