The color code is a r(red), g(green), b(blue) triplet in which each
of the components can be set to a number between 0 and 255
(inclusive). Lower values lead to dark colors and higher values to
lighter colors. Here are some useful combinations:
- (0,0,0) black
- (255,255,255) white
- (255,0,0) red
- (0,255,0) green
- (0,0,255) blue
If features are going to overlap, the user needs to specify the
priority of each feature. The color of the feature with the highest
priority will be used to color the region common to the overlapping
features. The priority can be specified on the color line. In the
following example, the color and priority of coding regions and
repeats is being assigned. The priority is the last number in the
color line. It has to be an integer greater than 1 (1 is used
internally in the program).
#color cds 0 0 255 3
#color repeat 0 255 0 2
In this case, if part of a coding region is also part of a repeat, it
will still be displayed in blue because
the
cds feature has a higher priority.
