Search Dialog

This dialog lets you search for any regions that are in your project. The default mode hides you most information and is meant to be easy to work with. You can only search for CDS regions and use only attributes which are defined for CDS regions. The more advanced view opens when you click on the button more options. Now you can select the type of region you are looking for. Attributes that are not defined for the region you chose are shown in grey and cannot be searched. The other attributes can be searched in an arbitrary combination.

In this example, we searched for all Transcript regions which names start with "fig" followed by nor or some arbitrary character(s) ".*" followed by "235" and again followed by some arbitrary characters ".*". We also set the region start to be below 20000. Below the search options our results are shown. There are 2 regions which meet our criteria. These regions can either be annotated or marked in the ContigView. If annotate selection is pressed, the MultiAnnotator will pop up to annotate all the regions at once. If the highlight selection button is pressed all checked regions will be highlighted blue in the ContigView and its QuickNavigationBar. If you click on the name of a region the ContigView will jump to that region and select it.
