Description

I guess there is a new feature where genes you relocate to are shaded? I can see the value in this, but it needs to be made optional!

Also it seems to be inconsistent and dependent on gene size:
1. When I relocate to a gene (I've been testing TFAP2C, SFN, KRT5 this morning) it is NOT shaded. Once I zoom out it becomes shaded, but the shorter genes (KRT5 and SFN) are much darker than the longer ones (TFAP2C, CASZ1). Then again, I think it is more related to how much you zoom out.
2. But only sometimes when I zoom out does it become shaded. The feature seems pretty unstable.
