Biopython Genomediagram label placement

Question

[sebastiantheobaldsen]

Hi,

I am new to Genomediagram and was wondering if there is a way to place labels (e.g. greytrack labels) to the left of the track in a linear plot. Furthermore, I would like to have all feature labels in the same orientation, regardless of the direction of the sequence. Are there options available to achieve this?

Thanks in advance!

Greytrack labels: No, I don't think so.

Orientation of feature labels (in linear diagrams): Try setting different label angles depending on each feature's strand (i.e.set all the reverse strand labels to be 180 different from what you pick for the forward strand labels).
