Hello Galaxy Users,
The Galaxy development team is starting a new initiative for
communicating important announcements about Galaxy to our users. We
will be sending announcements like this one to the galaxy-
user@bx.psu.edu
email list, so if you are interested in receiving these
announcements, please be sure to subscribe to this list. We are also
in the process of adding a "News" page to our Galaxy wiki
documentation, so some announcements will be available there as well.
Here are the highlights of the new features that are currently
available
on our Galaxy test environment at http://test.g2.bx.psu.edu/.
Maf Limit to Species Tool
This tool offers the ability to remove any undesired species from a
MAF
file. Columns which contain only gaps are removed. The user can choose
to keep or discard blocks which do not have all the desired species.
The
user can also choose to include blocks which contain only a single
species.
Enhanced LAJ Tool
We have added a dialog box for filtering the input data. This
eliminates a problem we were having with integer overflow.
Enhanced Build Lists of the Upload Tool and Edit Attributes
Build lists are now alphabetized (by display name) in edit attributes
and the upload tool.
Miscellaneous
We have made several miscellaneous improvements throughout the
application, including (but not limited to) better descriptions of
errors encountered with invalid data source files (even more
improvements coming in this area).
As stated above, we'll continue to contact you with new about
important
Galaxy enhancements and updates.
Thanks very much,
The Galaxy Development Team
