Hi Kenneth, Yes, this automatic change in visibility happens with many tracks when there are too many items or lines of items to display efficiently/effectively. There is a setting that you can use with many track types called maxItem, the value of which is the maximum number of lines used, except with bigBed display (I'm not sure what track type you're using) rather than the maximum number of lines, it sets the max number of items that will display in anything other than dense mode. In full modes, the number of lines and the number of items is the same. Also note, that trying to display too many items at once will slow down the browser's display to a point that it is very difficult to use.
Please contact the mail list ([email protected]) again if you have any further questions.

Can this be fixed. > Ken > _______________________________________________ > Genome maillist - [email protected] > https://lists.soe.ucsc.edu/mailman/listinfo/genome _______________________________________________ Genome maillist - [email protected] https://lists.soe.ucsc.edu/mailman/listinfo/genome
