Coordinates

These are options for changing number appearance. FULL shows the number with no thousands separators and the unit 'kb'. COMMA shows the numbers with commas at every 10^3 (U.S. style) and with no unit designations. This is the default. ABBREV will show the numbers as abbreviated as is reasonable, with unit designations. For example, when zoomed out, numbers appear as 10M, 20M etc. Changes made here to Number Format take effect immediately. 

...

The Codon Display is activated when the sequence of a gene model is loaded and the user zooms in close enough to see the sequence. The codon translation appears within the gene model. User can set the amino acids to appear in one letter format (default), three letter format or be hidden. The colors is based on the chosen foreground color for the track.

Info

Codon display is active only for tracks loaded from 14-column BED detail files.

Track Resize Behavior

Track Resize Behavior is how IGB adjusts other tracks when a specific track height is changed. Adjust All Tracks means that as a single track is increased in height, all other tracks are reduced by a commensurate amount. Adjust Adjacent Tracks (default) means that all added or subtracted height is removed/added to the bordering track, leaving the rest of the display unaffected.
