Summary:
SaveAs ignores selection and saves all sequences
Original submission:
copy the .gen files from $birch/tutorials/bioLegato/sequence
to the current directory

bldna

read in PBI101TD.gen and X5331.gen
select X52331 in name pane
File --> SaveAs (GenBank) X52331.bldna.gen

This file will contain the GenBank entries for both files,
despite the fact that only X52331 was selected.

read in PEACAB15.gen
select PEACAB15 in name pane
file --> SaveAs (GenBank) PEACAB15.bldna.gen
This file will contain all three GenBank entries

select PEACAB15
File --> SaveAs (fasta) PEACAB15.bldna.fsa
This file saves all three sequences in fasta format


read in pBSGUS.wrp (a fasta file)
select pBSGUS in name pane
File --> SaveAs (GenBank) pBSGUS.bldna.gen
This file contains all four sequences in GenBank format.
since pBSGUS has no GenBank annotation, its annotation
is generated, correctly by Biolegato.

CONCLUSION:
It appears that there is a bug in SaveAs that ignores the
selection and just saves all sequences.

It turns out that this is a feature, not a bug. Save As saves all sequences, and Save Selection saves the selection.

To alleviate this confusion, we will do the following:

1. The Save As menu will be changed to say "Save ALL As".
2. The Save Selection menu will be changed to "Save SELECTION As". So far, the latter change has been made for bldna, but it still needs to be done for all menus. 		09/19/13 16:12 B_Fristensky
