TITLE           Node Display Setup (NDS)

OCCURRENCE      ARB_NT/Tree/NDS
                ARB_GENE_MAP/Properties/NDS

NOTES           Read this text carefully. You won't need this function, but
                it offers many many new possibilities.

DESCRIPTION     Extracts data from the database entries of every species and
                builds a user-readable string from that data.

                This string can be used in many different functions, especially
                to show the species information at the tips of the tree or
                to show gene information at the tips of the genes in the
                gene map.

                It allows you to show part of the sequences, the full_name,
                the accession numbers right in the tree. You may even
                generate tables with all kinds of useful information, like
                probe match results for a set of oligo probes.

                Choose the 'NDS' item from the 'ARB_NT/Tree' menu to
                display the 'NDS' window.

                Enable field extraction:

                        Press the 'LEAF' and/or 'GRP.' checkbox to activate the display of
                        the corresponding 'field' entry at leafs and/or groups
                        of the tree shown in the tree display area of the 'ARB_NT' window.

                Select 'FIELD':

                        The order of the data shown at the tree nodes
                        (from left to right) corresponds to that in the 'NDS'
                        window (top to bottom). To select a 'field' enter the field name
                        by hand or press the respective <S> button and select it
                        from the popup-list.

                        Press <RESCAN> there to display all fields, if fields have been deleted
                        from the list by 'Species Information/Delete hide fields'.

                Define number of characters:

                        Type the number of characters (including blanks) to be
                        displayed to the 'WIDTH' subwindow.

                Display SRT/ACI:

                        The 'Search and replace Tool (SRT)' and the 'ARB Command
                        Interpreter (ACI)' in combination with 'Nodes Display
                        Setup (NDS)' allows information to be extracted and/or modified
                        from the 'Field' entries, before being displayed at the tree nodes.

                        Press the corresponding <SRT> button to display the
                        'SRT_ACI_SELECT' window and select a predefined procedure
                        (see LINK{acisrt.hlp}).

                        The corresponding syntax (see LINK{srt.hlp}, LINK{aci.hlp} and
                        LINK{reg.hlp}) is displayed in the 'ACI SRT PROGRAM' subwindow.
                        The displayed strings can be modified by typing to the subwindows.


NOTES           Strings generated using 'SRT' or 'ACI' and displayed at the
                nodes are not stored in the database. You can use
                the 'Modify fields of listed species'-menuentry in the
                'Search & Query' window to do this.

                The width of the output is limited to 4000 characters.
