Many data files and data sets (such as BAM files) contain too much data to display at once. For this reason, IGB does not automatically load data from a newly opened data set or file. To view data in a file, zoom in and click Load Data. Regions where data have not yet been loaded have slightly darker backgrounds. |
...
If you're working with large files such as .bam, .sam, .wig, .bedGraph, you should 'zoom in' to a smaller area before loading your data, i.e. select a smaller region of data to load. .
To zoom in on a region of interest, you can:
- Use the zoom slider to zoom in on a gene (purple box/arrow). Click in the main window to focus zooming and then drag the slider to right to zoom in.
- Search for a gene. Click the Advanced Search tab and enter the name of a gene. Double-click rows in the results list to jump to a feature (red box/arrow).
- See also Searching in IGB
- Double click on a feature within the visual field to zoom to that feature in on it (orange box/arrow).
- See also Selecting a feature
- Enter a coordinate range coordinates in the coordinate box and hit enter to zoom to that location (green box/arrow)
- Click and -drag within a region in the coordinate axis to zoom to a region of interest (blue box/arrow).
