Good Morning Duke:

Your track has too many items in the location of view to display them.
The genome browser lowers its visibility until it fits comfortably.
In the worst case, it will only display in 'dense'.

You can make a density graph of your track with the kent src utility:
   bedItemOverlapCount
in: src/hg/bedItemOverlapCount/ to get an idea of the pile ups.

Sorry, it should not be "always". Actually if I set the bigBed to 
/full/, it is only be /full/ in some range and/or locations. Most of 
other cases, it stays at /pack/ visibility. The corresponding bed file 
acts correctly (meaning /full/ is /full/ :D). Is this expected or there 
is an option that I have missed?

Thanks,

D.
