The drop-down menus in the Select views section control the
kind of data tracks that will be displayed, such as "peaks" or
"signal". To configure the display of the tracks for each data
type, click on the name of the view next to the drop-down menu. Note that
when a view has been set to hide in this section, the corresponding
subtracks will have grayed-out checkboxes in the List subtracks
section below.
Selecting subtracks
The Select subtracks section is a grid of checkboxes that provides
a quick way to select a set of subtracks according to some attribute, such as
"cell line" or "antibody". Note that selections made using
these boxes reset any selections made on the individual subtracks in the
List subtracks section below.
The List subtracks section allows you to select and deselect
individual subtracks. This section provides the most refined control of the
track display. Selections made here do not change the selections made in the
Select views or Select subtracks sections above.
Sorting subtracks
The order of subtracks in the List subtracks section determines the
display position on the main Genome Browser display page. Tracks can be
sorted by clicking on the attribute links at the top of the column (if any).
The numbers next to each link indicate the priority of the sort for each
attribute. Additionally, tracks can be ordered by "drag and drop":
click and hold a track row in the List subtracks section and release it in
a new position.
More details
To learn more about the underlying data for a subtrack, press the ellipsis
(...) next to the subtrack name in the List subtracks section.
This section will expand to display information such as the name of the data
contributor, the cell line and antibody used in the experiment, the data
submission date and more. To see a full description of the underlying table,
press the "schema" link.
Selecting filter categories
Some tracks have additional filter menus that allow you to control the items
that appear in displayed subtracks. Click on a menu to see all of the available
item types. Click on any item type to select it.
