GenPlay v970

Release date: 08-09-2013

GenPlay

Track Layers

- Genomic data files are now loaded as layers instead of tracks.

- Tracks can can contain multiple layers.

- Layer options (color, graph type, visible) are available in the Track Setting menu item of the track contextual menu.

- Operation menus are now associated to layers instead of tracks.

Data structure

- Memory usage greatly improved for all layer types.

- The fix window, variable window and mask layers have been partially merged. Operations tend to be more similar between these types of layers and the creation of these layers can be done through a single consolidated interface available from the track contextual menu in "Add Layer" -> "Sequencing / Microarray Layer".

File Loading

- File extraction and data structure construction is now done in one step (instead of two) and loading is considerably faster than in the previous versions. Peaks of memory consumption have been greatly reduced.

- Sequence layers are faster to load.

Assemblies

- Rat genome rn5 has been added


GenPlay v584

Release date: 05-17-2012

GenPlay

Warnings report - Previously name "Errors Report".

- Display priority between the "Warnings Report" dialog and other dialogs improved.

- New kind of warning: type of treatment "has been skipped"/"position has been shrinked to fit the chromosome length".

Two Track Operation

- Operation improved for variable windows tracks.

- Result track improved. In some cases, the last data of the longest track was not correctly added.

Others

- Specific message dialog when loading wrong project type from current project.

- Error when converting a fixed windows track into a variable windows track. (Thank you Kinga)

- Delay after canceling an operation fixed (no more freeze).

- Bug fixed when loading variable windows with chromosomes containing only one value.

- GenPlay checks now if a project is file dependant and if these files are valid (eg: multi genome project and vcf files).

  • If they are not, it will ask for the new path.
  • This verification take place at the loading of a project.

- Behavior change in a variable windows track.

  • The score of the window is 0 if the cursor is at the last position + 1 of the window.
  • Previously, the score at this position was the score of the window.
  • It basically showed that the track was going one position further than it actually does.

- Rectangles disappear on a low zoom level using variable windows.

- Genome position/screen position calculation methods improved.

- Mouse pointer precision (fixes many odd behaviors).

- Windows behavior has changed during the track loading (some action are disabled during the action processing).

Multi Genome

VCF Loader

- Raw name and nickname combo boxes behavior improved:

  • Raw names box updated when selecting a file.
  • Nickname box automatically updated (with the raw name value) when the raw names box is updated.
  • Nickname automatically selected at the first change ONLY of a raw name box.

Multi Genome Dialog Properties

- The multi genome properties dialog is now reachable from the new button on the bottom left of GenPlay.

- New dialogs for selecting stripes and filters. Stripes/Filters are now much easier to create.

- When editing a stripe (after it has been created), it is actually possible to select more than one genome which does not make sense. A message dialog shows up telling the first selected genome only has been taken into account.

- New GT (genotype) filters using heterozygote/homozygote and phasing options.

- For FORMAT fields, can select several genomes and apply operators according to the field type (AND, OR, SUM, MEAN). It manages how data from the different genomes has to behave in order to pass thourgh the filter.

- Statistics for VCF files and their genomes are now processed when loading the files and available in the Multi Genome Dialog Properties at:

  • -> Files
  • --> "Your file"
  • ---> Statistics

- All tables in the Multi Genome Dialog Properties were editable, they are not anymore.

- The default section to open in the dialog can be changed in the settings section.

- The group default text for VCF Loader can be changed in the settings section.

- The dialog can be launch from the regular button. However, a right click on it will popup the different main sections of the dialog as shortcuts!

- The action aiming the update of SNPs, filters and track display has been improved. Threads inter-communication is better and gets the operation faster.

VCF Reading

- Error when reading the header of VCF file that causes an issue in showing the genome raw names within the VCF Loader.

- There was a bug when parsing meta data with comma in Description field, it has been fixed.

GenPlay data structure

- Many changes in packages structure.

- New generic comparator for lists.

- Images access improved.

- New color chooser dialog. Previous colors are now available in the "Recent" panel of the dialog.

- Refactoring of the horizontal scroll bar and the multi genome button, they are now in the same panel.

- A complete refactoring of the communication between the different components of the main frame.

- Unix/Windows temporary files system improved. GenPlay configuration files are now stored in a smarter way.

- New configuration file management (for the application, for the recent project, for the project saving/loading).

- Data structure for VCF files management has changed and is now easier to handle and to improve.

- Use of the enum VCFColumnName (CHROM, POS, REF....FORMAT) in the whole project, generic behavior improved.


GenPlay v533

Release date: 02-10-2012

VCF Loader changes: - Column order changed (File/Raw/Genome/Group names).

- "Genome" column name is now "Nickname".

- "Group 1" is the default name of a group (even when you add a row).

- Click wherever you want on "Add…" line to add a text/file.

- When adding a vcf file, file chooser dialog automatically set on .vcf.gz file extension).

- Error management behavior: you can edit your settings, having errors and it will be validate when you click "ok" (you will have a message warning you and statistics panel will not update). However, you cannot create the project until your settings are valid.

Multi Genome Improvements:

- Letters centered on the stripes.

- Highlighting precision for SNPs increased.

- Variant navigation improvements.

- Stripes default transparency changed.


GenPlay v529

Release date: 01-27-2012

Bug fixes:

- Description field of VCF IDs.

- Calculation of the length in the dialog tool tip stripe corrected.

- 1-based DNA sequence bug fixed!

Minor fixes...


GenPlay v527

Release date: 01-25-2012

Display improvements:

- Draws the border of stripes.

- Write nucleotides over stripes.

These options can be set in the MG properties dialog.


GenPlay v526

Release date: 01-23-2012

Many bugs fixed:

- Name of human assemblies: GRCh and NCBI ("chr" pattern present/absent).

- 2bit files display.

- 2bit files and 0/1based pair issue.

- DBSNP hyperlink.

- Do not crash when change chromosome.

XML import setting improvement for MG project.

The XML setting file can now refer to files with a relative path.

The input file="C:\MyFolder\MyVCF.vcf.gz" can be written: file=".\MyVCF.vcf.gz"

VCF files can be hierarchize into subdirectories.

The only matter is the XML setting file must be at the root directory.

Export feature writes the full path of the files since they can be located in other folders.

A user can store its data like this:

C:\MySettings\ (contains all XML files)

C:\MyVCFs\ (contains all VCF files)
