Upcoming Hackathon (7/11/2010)

Here are some ideas for things to work on w.r.t GBsyn dev. etc.

User interface

  • The tracks don't 'feel' like GB 2.0 tracks, and are described in the manual as 'gbrowse-like'. Why can't we have proper GBrowse tracks? Wouldn't this allow a lot of code to be refactored?
  • I'd like to use my existing track configuration to configure tracks in GBsyn. Additional options could be added to the GBsyn conf to turn tracks off, because its a pain to reconfigure them all from scratch again (especially using GBrowse 1.7 syntax) for GBsyn.
  • I'd like a global configuration file, like GBrowse 2.0 now has. To get anything up and running you need a specific config file, which feels wrong somehow.
  • Sometimes the alignment is broken into blocks (each one should be a bona fide GB track remember) can we have a uniform scale across all blocks? I think small blocks are sometimes drawn to a different scale.
    • The rendering of rulers in small blocks is crappy
