A map set contains a list of tracks, sometimes organized into a tree-like structure. A track can be attached to a node that will place it into the hierarchy shown as an indent. To edit a map set track tree, enter edit followed by tracktreenode and the MapSetId number or path name of the map set. The following shows an example of renaming a track tree node given a map set path:

PS> edit tracktreenode "Arabidopsis thaliana/Arabidopsis annotation v. 10"
TrackTree for MapSet 'Arabidopsis annotation v. 10':
[0] GENBANK (CDS) (Track, Order: 0, Type: Annotation)
[1] MRNA (Track, Order: 1, Type: Annotation)
[2] Other gene models (Group, Order: 3)
 [3] FGENESH (CDS) (Track, Order: 2, Type: Annotation)
 [4] GlimmerHMM (CDS) (Track, Order: 4, Type: Annotation)
 [5] FGENESH2 (CDS) (Track, Order: 20, Type: Annotation)
[6] Blast Tracks (Group, Order: 16)
 [7] PLANT_NR_HITS (Track, Order: 12, Type: Alignment)
 [8] blast vs plant_nr (Track, Order: 14, Type: Alignment)
 [9] plant nr tblastn (Track, Order: 15, Type: Alignment)
 [10] plant_nr partitioned (Track, Order: 16, Type: Alignment)
 [11] plant nr partitioned 3 (Track, Order: 17, Type: Alignment)
[12] Bedgraph Tracks (Group, Order: 17)
 [13] Large Bedgraph Tracks (Group, Order: 17)

Enter [NodeNumber] to edit? 7
NodeName? PLANT_NR
Parent [NodeNumber]? 6
OrderNo? 12
IsShownFirst? False
Do you really want to UPDATE the TrackTreeNode? (Y/N) Y
Success.

Here, the flag IsShownFirst specifies whether a track should be shown when a map is opened for the first time.

Using this command can change the order of nodes in the tree or move the track tree branches by changing their parent nodes. This command also allows to rename the tracks.

Note

A new track tree node can be added by the command add tracktreenode. This command will ask which tracks should be grouped under the new node.

Note

There is no command edit track. As opposed to editing one particular track with a particular ID, most probably, you would want to edit all tracks with the same name for all maps in the map set, which includes moving the tracks in the tree structure or renaming them. This is the reason why the command is called edit tracktreenode.
