How do I import Custom Feature Types into SnapGene from a file?
Open a File with One or More Features Defined as a Custom Type
Open a file that contains sequence features with Custom Feature Types (SnapGene .dna, .rna, .prot or .dnaln).
Double click on a Feature to view the unknown Feature Type details.
Click the Disclosure triangle to see the name of the unknown Type.
If the Feature Type is an unknown Type SnapGene will ask if you want to Create [a] custom feature Type, or Change missing Type to misc_feature.
Click OK to create the feature Type, and open the "Edit Feature" dialog.
Revise the feature if required then click OK.
The new feature Type is now available to use with new features added to other sequences.
