Notes to review (code/docs/QA)

QA: Verify that IGV in VISUAL performs as expected. Also note any differences with current production version for docs.

New features in IGV.js v2.7.9 compared to v2.5.4 that might impact user experience:

  • Insertions and deletions are now included in the "sort by base" option (issue 1244)
  • Add "Sort by gap size" option to alignment track context (right-click) menu.
  • Enable normalization of coverage tracks (1153).
  • Add "squished view" option for BAM tracks (160).
  • Support setting color (altColor) for negative strand features (1149)
  • Make the "showAllChromosomes" option true by default. This option controls the chromosome pulldown. if false only the largest chromosomes will be shown. The intent is to filter out the thousands of small scaffolds and contigs sometimes present in fasta files.

See IGV releases for complete list of differences (including bug fixes).
