I have not used Maker, but if you open the CDS feature to edit (Edit->Selected Features in Editor) Artemis provides a codon_start (values 1,2 or 3) which can be used to define the frame the CDS appears in. > > 2) When I save/edit the gff3 (i.e. create or edit features) in Artemis, the > file does not re-open properly--the gene models are lost.

Try unselecting that. Regards Tim _______________________________________________ Artemis-users mailing list Artemis-users@sanger.ac.uk http://lists.sanger.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/artemis-users
