There are several ways to get data sets into IGB, from servers/sources, from URLs and from the local computer. To load data from a server, locate the data set in the folders of the Data Sources panel. Put a check in the box next to the data you are interested in. This file will be entered into the Choose Load Mode listthe Data Management Table.
For files loaded from URL or from the local computer, just drag and drop into the IGB interface; the file will immediately appear in the Choose Load Mode listthe Data Management Table. Alternatively, use the File > Open File.. or Open URL... to find and load the file(s) you want. Be sure to set the species and genome at the bottom of the file selection window.
