Load GTF #15

Closed Akazhiel closed 11 months ago

Akazhiel commented 1 year ago

Hello!

Is there a way to load a GTF/GFF file to be able to have a gene/transcript track just like IGV or we have to transform these files into a BED file to load it?

Thanks!

Currently GTF/GFF are not supported. I can add this in the next release though

Akazhiel commented 1 year ago

That'd be awesome!

I tried converting a gtf into a bed and successfully load it but there's the issue that everything that overlaps is collapsed in the same track instead of being expanded like you can do in IGV.

kcleal commented 1 year ago

I can see that would be annoying. I need to do a bit more work on overlapping features. Igv has some nice ways to collapse and expand features, I think this should also be supported in gw.

GTF/GFF3 is now supported in v0.9, along with expandable tracks!
