This page http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/customTracks/custTracks.html
contains links to custom annotation tracks, and when I clicked on the link for the track I wanted, it caused the genome browser to display some random gene area with the desired annotation track displayed. But that does not seem to enable that custom track in general, for use when I return to the browser later. So, I found this page: http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/hgTracksHelp.html#CustomTracks which has a following section describing how to load a custom track into the browser. That section directs one to this page: http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgCustom?hgsid=160341613 which asks for the URL for the custom track data. There seems to be a disconnect here. How come the first page mentioned above does not include the URL in its description, so that it can be copied over to the last page mentioned above? Or better yet, why doesn't the last page mentioned above include a way to browse and select from the custom tracks listed in the first page above? Hope that makes sense. Undoubtedly I am misunderstanding something fundamental here, so would appreciate enlightenment! ted toal _______________________________________________ Genome maillist - [email protected] https://lists.soe.ucsc.edu/mailman/listinfo/genome
