Fed up with resizing consed windows each time i open the prog. trying to look into consedrc to see if i can make it remember windows sizes
stumble upon with these sites with no info for my purpose but might be helpful for u
interesting stuff on the last link to change BG of the windows for environmentally frenly slides printing

Alternative tutorial to phred/phrap/consed
Found that someone else posted another manual for the set of tools.
nice to cross reference when you don’t get what the original manual is trying to say
View all your subclone insert size in consed
the consistency in the sizes of the subclones is an important information in assembly. Up till today I used a calculator to calculate the sizes of the insert when i need to resolve some mis-assembly issues. Then I figured, phrap has to calculate the insert size somewhere to know that they are consistent! after going through the menus for a good 5 min i found what I want under the quite misleading name “Template Insert Locations”
Consed Main Window-> Info -> Show Template Insert Locations
it doesn’t not show where your subclones are in the contigs
instead it shows ‘insert size’ ‘sequencing position of the start of the insert in universal primer read’ and if ‘this template is ok to be used by autofinish’
This information is useful for me to double check some iffy regions whether phrap assembled the region wrongly.
for one thing I still can’t figure out how phrap determines if the insert size is ‘consistent’ or inconsistent…. can’t find this in the help manual.
if you know anything can you contact me?
