How do I see two views at the same time in a DNA, RNA or protein sequence window?
A split window provides two panels that allow you to display two different views, or two versions of the same view, one above the other.
Enter Split Window Mode
To create two View panels, click the "Split Window" button or click View → Split Window.
Choose the Desired Views
Use the View options in the two panels to set the desired view combination. For example, select Map view in the top panel and Sequence view in the bottom panel. Click on a feature, primer, or enzyme site in one view to select and view the region in both views.
Resize the Views
Adjust the panel widths by resizing the SnapGene window.
- To change the relative heights of the two panels, click and drag the central divider.
- If the top panel height prevents some side toolbar buttons from being displayed, then click the "ellipsis" button icon to see the hidden buttons.
Adjust a View
Use the "Display" control change View-specific options.
