Hi Luca,

Thanks for the extra information.  I'm not sure about the different formatting 
(although have a theory!), but I have another suggestion about the Colour by 
conservation.

If you aren't closing the "Conservation Colour Increment" popup window (with 
the percentage slider) between adjusting the first alignment window, and 
adjusting the second, then the slider will stay associated with the first 
alignment window.  It's possible to get to a state where both alignment windows 
have the "Colour->By Conservation" option ticked, but the slider is only ever 
associated with one of them!
If you select "Colour->By Conservation" in the new alignment window (if it's 
already ticked, you may need to select it once to untick it and then select it 
again) then that should ensure the slider popup is associated with that 
alignment, and will hopefully adjust the colouring accordingly in the expected 
window.  Be sure that "Colour->Clustalx" is selected in that window first too!

Let us know if this does or doesn't help.

Best wishes,

Ben

Hi Ben/Jeff,

Thank you for getting back to me. If I load an existing project/alignment, 
colour by conservation works. However, if in the same project I generate a new 
alignment from a set of fasta sequences, it doesn’t. The formatting of the new 
alignment is also different: lines are now wrapped and font type/size has 
changed.

Best wishes,
Luca

Hi Luca,

Sorry you are having trouble with this.

I just tried it with a Pfam alignment and it seemed to work OK for me both 
conservation shading and group shading by conservation.

I have the same version and  macOS as you.     Some things to try are:  
reselect the colour by conservation option and select the “modify conservation 
threshold” option as well.  Sometimes selecting a different colour scheme, then 
going back to clustalX/conservation colouring fixes things.

Mmm, are you talking about conservation on a linked structure?   If so, I will 
give that a try too.

Geoff.

Subject: [Jalview-discuss] Colour by conservation problem

Hello,

'Colour by conservation’ with Clustal colouring has stopped working. Can anyone 
please advise? I’m using Jalview v2.11.1.4 and macOS Catalina.

Best wishes,
Luca
