obtaining sequence via highlight-drag

[tcbishop]

at one website (lost the link) i was able to highlight a region of genome in IGV and download the sequence as a fasta file. I'd like to instead push that same fasta information directly to some tools I've developed.

How best to achieve this?
Thanks

I assume you are asking about igv.js not IGV (desktop). I don't know what website you are referring to, this isn't currently possible with igv.js. In fact there is no way currently to "highlight a region" though the UI, although we will be adding that capability soon.

How did you accomplish this with Dalliance? Do you have a demo of it?

The yellow resizable slider bar appearing on dalliance at https://dna.engr.latech.edu/~gdash/GDash-min/ serves as our sequence selector in G-Dash. A collaborator inserted  this functionality for us some years ago. How? IDK Tom

that would explain why I can no longer find the example. Turns out it was Jbrowse not igv.js . my apologies. Tom

This would be new functionality for igv.js. If you already have this working with JBrowse maybe that's a better choice. Unlike JBrowse igv.js does not have a plugin API.
