Explicitly set BP/Pixel in Biological Sequence Viewer?

Can the BP/Pixel in Biological Sequence Viewer be set explicitly (besides zoom in/out)? I have multiple sequences I would like to view, and I would like them to be the same scale on my screen.

Or, is there another way I can visualize two sequences and their CDSes on the same scale?

Dear David Roe,

I am not really sure what you mean by 'the same scale', but I assume for now multiple aligned sequences... if you mean you want to align multiple sequences, you could use the sequence alignment function.

For example:

HIVseqs = multialignread('aagag.aln');
showalignment(HIVseqs)

Or something like:

seqalignviewer('aagag.aln')

Here is the accompanying documentation: seqalignviewer, which requires as input multiple aligned sequences from multialign. Or you could use showalignment to have a look at your multiple sequences.

The question is about the viewer, and how many pixels wide items are represented in the graphics.
