Page History
Data tracks section of the Select tracks dialog enables you to specify the tracks for visualization on the canvas. An overview of the available track types is provided in Figure 161. Note that not all tracks are visible at all times and that their presence depends on the zoom level. The tracks can be customised and their appearance changed by using the control panel on the right.
...
Alignments track displays a view of alignments present in .bam files in a stacked histogram fashion (similar to Partek® Partek® Genomics Suite®Suite®). The y-axis shows number of (raw) base calls per position. By default, reads are coloured by sample; the exception is invocation of the chromosome view on a variant table, when the reads are coloured by base calls. The difference is shown in Figure 172.

The Isoform proportion track displays the reads mapped to transcripts and helps to visualize differential expression and alternative splicing, using standard symbols for exons (boxes) and introns (lines connecting the boxes). The size of each transcript is proportional to the number of reads that map to that transcript. The color indicates the samples to which the reads belong. Figure 18 3 shows a gene with two transcripts in RefSeq database; the top transcript is more abundant than the bottom transcript and is preferentially expressed in the "blue" condition (labeled as 0 uM). The bottom transcript, on the other hand, seems to be expressed at the same level across all three conditions (i.e. 0 uM, 5 uM, 10 uM). The number and structure of transcripts on the plot depend on the transcript model that was used for mapping.

Variant tracks show single nucleotide variants (SNVs) and indels, and appear in the Select track dialog if Detect variants task has been performed. Presentation of variants depends on the level of zoom. With low power magnification, SNVs are seen as purple columns and indels are bars (insertions: green bars; deletions: red bars) (Figure 194).

Upon zoom-in, SNVs are drawn as pie charts, representing the proportion of each base call at that locus (Figure 205)

At higher modification, insertions are seen as green boxes, with individual inserted bases presented using a pie chart, while deletions look like red boxes and the affected bases are also presented by a pie (Figure 216).

When you zoom closer to the genome, all the amino acids become visible as colored boxes (Figure 227) and labeled using the single-letter amino acid code. Alternative amino acids are depicted as additional boxe on box on the top of the consensus sequence.
...
If an amino acid spans two exons, its box will be truncated and the line connecting the exons will be dashed. An example is in Figure 238.

An empty gray box on the top of consensus sequence is used to indicate a STOP codon, which is a consequence of a mutation (Figure 249).

Untranslated bases, such as ones downstream of a STOP codon are depicted by lighter shades. Figure 25 10 shows two transcripts in an amino acid track; the direction is from left to right, so amino acids downstream of a STOP codon (P > G > L) are lightly shaded.
...
Forward strand reads are in sky blue, while reverse strand reads are in parakeet green. If paired-end chemistry was used, the paired reads will be depicted as half reads within a gray rectangle encompassing the pair (Figure 2611). Singletons will be depicted as thicker reads.
...
If you used a junction-aware aligner (such as TopHat or STAR), the junction reads will be depicted using dashed lines, which connect exon-spanning parts of the same read (Figure 2712).

Deleted bases can also be seen on a Reads pileup track, as fat black lines (Figure 2813).

Microarray probes are visualised by the Probe intensities track. The probes are shown as bars and their colour depends on the probe intensity, ranging from white (low) to admiral blue (high) (Figure 2914).

As with the Reads pileup track, probes may not be visible with low power magnification and you will see a message - Zoom in to view individual microarray probes.
