Detecting when a Genoverse instance is ready about genoverse

Hi Anton, my apologies for the ridiculous delay in answering this question!

The answer (if you still care) is that you shouldn't need to detect if it is "ready". Once you've done new Genoverse({..}), you can move around or zoom immediately, and track data will be loaded for your new region once you do this. You do not have to wait for the tracks to load in the initial region before moving away from it.

If you are creating a browser dynamically, you should just set chr, start and end in the config to be what you want, and then you wouldn't have to worry about moving straight away.

Hi Simon,

Thanks for your reply. I do still care, although I am working on something else now and don't quite remember all the details.

I do remember, however, that in practice if you do

browser = new Genoverse({start=X, end=Y, chr=Z, etc});
browser.zoomOut();

sometimes it would load the desired location and then zoom out (which is what I want) and sometimes it would zoom out on the default region and then navigate to the new region specified in the config. The scenario depends on how fast the REST API serves up the annotations.

Maybe this isn't the case anymore, but it was at this time: 867c886

Feel free to close this issue for now if you like, but I am going to update it if I run into this problem again.

Hi Anton,

I cannot currently replicate this with the current code, so I will close it for now.
