[Artemis-users] GFF3 and artemis

2008-04-11 Thread Chris Fields
I'm using GFF3 data dumped from a feature database and want to use  
Artemis as an editor.  However, I have noticed a few issues.


1) I would like to save back into GFF3 format for reloading back into  
the same database.  However, I can only save as GenBank/EMBL  
(attempting to save as GFF doesn't appear to work in the latest  
version of Artemis).


2) I can work around the above by saving as EMBL and converting over  
using bioperl; however, another problem is that the source column in  
GFF3 appears to be ignored (which I use to distinguish tracks in  
GBrowse).  Is there a way to remedy this?

Just noticed that Save all Entries works (updates the current GFF3),  
but using Save Entry as... to a new GFF3 file doesn't (but EMBL/ 
GenBank do).

As in the above, updating the file works and keeps the source name  
(column 2), so it appears to be retained somewhere.  Any way to edit  
that (maybe in the options file?).
