Publisher's Description: |
GView is a java package used to display and navigate bacterial genomes. GView is useful for producing high-quality genome maps for use in publications and websites, or as a visualization tool in a sequence annotation pipeline. Users can interact with the genome using a powerful pan-and-zoom interface, or GView can write static images of a genome to a file. GView can draw a genome using either circular or linear layouts, with additional layout types planned for future release.
GView is a re-write of CGView, a circular genome viewer written by Paul Stothard. The goal of GView is to provide greater user interaction, and more flexibility in how the genome map is rendered. To aid with easily configuring the display of a genome, the Genome Style Sheet (GSS) format was developed. Using the same format as Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) used to render web pages, Genome Style Sheets are a simple and compact method of describing how different elements of a genome should be rendered in GView.
Using the GView API, it is possible to embed GView in a Java application. Users interacting with GView from within another program will have the same user interaction abilities as the GView stand-alone application. A program can add additional functions or interactions with GView, such as zooming to a specific gene, or changing the display style on the fly.
To test GView, please try out the GView Java Web Start version. For more complex tasks, a standalone version of GView can be downloaded.
