Posted By: David Kennedy - Jan 28, 2010Tool/Resource: NITRC Community We're happy to report that our colleagues at the Neuroscience Information Framework (NIF) have announced the new release of the NIF portal version 2.1 A re-posting of their announcement follows: Dear all, We are very pleased to announce the new release of the NIF portal version 2.1. Please visit http://www.neuinfo.org to explore the new site. This minor release includes the following improvements: * Resolved issues of multiple scroll bars by using a new layout scheme for the results page * Fixed the bug relating to mammals and primates in the selection of species from the gene preference section * Removed thumbnail images from GENSAT to improve consistency * Improved the handling of dots and slashes in indexes * Implemented a grid view in the databases tab now to automatically resize and fill in the empty space with data * Enabled the database tab to now show data from the first database in the list of results instead of a blank screen * Changed the layout of two “clear” buttons, no longer placed next to each other to avoid confusion * Fixed the paging issue with literature results You informed us of the bugs. We fixed them. * “When I right click on a Neurolex term in the expand box, it gives me the “show in NCBI” option but link doesn’t work” * “On the NIF Literature’s tab, the ‘More information’ link along the top is broken” * “Genes get duplicate synonyms” * “Genes should not allow expansion (Genes should not have a folder or allow expansion in the term tree)” * “Boolean conditions are getting mixed up in the Gene Query” * “For some queries e.g. Hippocampus the web results show the first page as blank although there is data on that page. The web result is blank, but moved to page 2 and page 2 displays results” * “Database results ’sort’ function not working (aside from the capitalization, numerical value issues) Release notes and known issues can be found available at https://confluence.crbs.ucsd.edu/display...
