It is currently not possible to interact with Jalview via the mouse, this needs some wrapping of functionality into SWT actions and menus. But it's a good start :-). See the wiki page net.bioclipse.jalview for progress.

Multiple alignments in Bioclipse
I have talked a lot about about integrating Jalview into Bioclipse for visualization and editing of multiple sequence alignments. I spent some hours on the problem and it was not too hard to get things going. It's now possible to double-click an alignment in any of the formats supported by Jalview (fasta, msf, clustalw, pileup, pir, blc, pfam) and Bioclipse opens an Alignment Editor with Jalview on one tab and the source file on the second.

Subversion in Bioclipse2
Since Bioclipse2 is more Eclipse-like, it is quite easy to make use of external Eclipse plugins. Here I demonstrate this by adding the Subclipse plugin for Subversion and making use of it from the Bioclipse2 workbench.
Figure: A local project shared on a Subversion repository. The editor shows compare of the local and remote version of the same document with changes highlighted.
Having version control inside the Bioclispe workbench opens up many new possibilities for collaborative work. It allows e.g. for shared editing of chemical and biological files, to resolve conflicts, and rollback any undesired changes.
The current solution requires some editing in the Subclipse source due to unresolved dependencies, but I will contact the Subclipse team and try to resolve this.
