  2. Pressing the "Details" button located in the top right corner.

  3. Pressing "Ctrl + T" on the keyboard.
  4. Choosing "Annotation -> View Details..." from the menu.

Note: Steps 2, 3, and 4 above require that
annotation be selected first.

If multiple pieces of annotation are selected, the dialog will contain information about every selected piece. Each different annotation will have its own tab. If an annotation is found on multiple loaded maps, it can be viewed by using the "Homologous Genes" drop down menu within the "Annotation Details" dialog. Even more additional information can be viewed by using the links found in the in the lower left corner. These links will open up the webpage for the source that the data was gathered from.
