If source sym is of type bed detail then it would output bed detail other wise it would output bed.

Do you want it to force output bed detail all time?

Note: Bed detail might be used in other places like Galaxy.

When users click "Save Track" (formerly "Save Selected") a new window opens that gives "bed" as the only option for the format to use.

Can you add "bed detail" as a new option?

If a user chooses this option but is trying to save a track where annotations do not have "gene name" or "description" attributes, then save as BED detail but include the string "NA" (for not available) in the 13th and 14th columns.

Ideally, if annotations within the track have "gene name" and "description" attributes, then "BED Detail" should be selected as the default option. If the annotations do not have those attributes, then "BED" should be the default option.

Done in r13227.

Is the TAIR10 mRNA track a bed detail track? Cause it's offering the BED as default, not bed detail.

It's always going to offer bed. At this point export cannot differentiate between bed file and bed detail file.

Currently if a file is a bed detail and you chose to save as a bed, it saves as bed detail - is this the correct behavior? Or is it supposed to actually save as a bed when you ask it to, and a bed detail when you ask it to? Or will it always default to bed detail?

Fixed in r13276.

It would always output the selected format.

bed detail is not saving properly for a bed detail file... (no data in it)

open TAIR10 and the LL juncs. Select 1or 2 annot, and chose save selected. For LL Jun file, save as bed or save as bed detail works. But for TAIR10, bed works fine, but bed detail does not.

If user selects "bed detail" and the annotations have no "gene name" or "description" fields, values "NA" (not available) should be inserted in fields 13 and 14.

A typo creeped in. Fixed in r13287.
