Bookmarks in IGB allow you to create a shortcut to a specific genomic location and zoom level within a collection of data sets. Bookmarks will be listed in the Bookmarks menu. When you create the bookmark, you will be able to provide any name or descriptor you wish to help you remember what details about the bookmark is for.. In 6.6, we have added tool tips for bookmarks, showing the chromosome number and coordinate range to further assist you in your data analysis. We have also included Bookmark history; within the bookmark tab, you will find 'fast forward' and 'rewind' buttons which will allow you to move back or forward through the bookmarks you have looked at/made during a particular session.
The Bookmark tab
The Bookmark tab allows you easy access to the bookmark list; it also provided all of the tools needed to manage and share the bookmarks. It does NOT actually create bookmarks - that requires the two functions found in the Bookmarks menu (see the details below). The Bookmarks tab can be opened either from Bookmarks > Open Bookmarks Tab, which will open it in the default right portrait tray, OR from View > Tabs > Bookmarks, which will allow you to open it in any of the three trays or as an independent window. For more details about this tab, see Bookmark Panel.

If you find that you need to organize your bookmarks, the Bookmark Manager or Bookmark tab has several options. First, simply click and drag the name of a bookmark to move it around within the list. You can create folders and sub-folders to group your bookmarks; you can also create separators to help with organization. Both the folders and separators can be created using the helpful side buttons (blue box). You can also delete a bookmark by selecting it and clicking the trashcan icon (purple box).
You can view details about your bookmarks, such as their position, which genome they refer to, or customizations. Right click the selected bookmark or click within the bookmark manager window the Properties button (either left side or bottom button outlined in red). This will open the Properties window with all of the information. If you make changes, click Apply Changes or Cancel; changes will not take effect unless you choose Apply Changes. You can also modify the name of a bookmark from either the Properties window, or the helpful Name entry box (orange box).
You can also delete a bookmark by selecting it and clicking the trashcan icon (purple box).
Finally, as you can see (green arrow) we are currently looking at the second bookmark. We can use the history arrows (green box) to move forward or back through the bookmarks we have used in this session.
