 <h2>Feb. 03, 2026 &nbsp;&nbsp; New &quot;Visible Tracks&quot; group feature</h2>
 <p>
 We are excited to announce a new improvement to the UCSC Genome Browser: the
 <b>Visible Tracks</b> group. The Genome Browser now includes a dynamic track group that
 automatically displays all currently visible tracks in one convenient location. This means you no
 longer need to hunt through multiple track categories to adjust tracks you've already turned on.

 </div>
 <p>
 Previously, managing visible tracks required navigating back to their original categories &mdash;
 whether that was Genes and Gene Predictions, Conservation, Variation, or any other group. Now, all
 your active tracks appear together in the <b>Visible Tracks</b> group, making it faster and easier
 to adjust display modes for visible tracks.
 </p>
 <p>
-We would like to thank Chris Lee and Jairo Navarro Gonzalez for their work on creating and testing
-the feature.</p>

+The &quot;Visible Tracks&quot; will only appear when there are more than 32 tracks available for a
+genome assembly.

 <h2>Feb. 03, 2026 &nbsp;&nbsp; Hub Space: Host Your Track Hubs Directly on the Genome Browser</h2>
 <p>
 We are excited to introduce <a href="/cgi-bin/hgHubConnect#hubUpload">Hub Space</a>, a new
 hosting service that allows users to upload and visualize track hub files directly on the UCSC
 Genome Browser without relying on third-party hosting services such as Dropbox, Google Drive, or
 AWS.

 <b>Hub Space Features:</b><br>
 Each account is allocated 10 GB of storage space. While we strive to maintain uninterrupted
 access, please maintain your own backups. Data persistence over the long term is not
 guaranteed. To request additional storage space, please
 <a href="/contacts.html">contact us</a>.
 </p>
 
 <p>
 <b>How to Use Hub Space:</b><br>
 There are two primary ways to upload your files:
 </p>
 
 <ol>
   <li>
     <b>Single file upload:</b> Upload individual binary-indexed files (bigBed, bigWig, BAM, VCF,
     and other supported formats) for immediate visualization.
   </li>
   <li>
     <b>Complete hub upload:</b> Upload an entire track hub along with all supporting files
     (hub.txt, bigWig, bigBed, etc.) to visualize the hub.
   </li>
 </ol>
 
 <p>
 If a hub.txt file is not provided when uploading data files, one is automatically generated.
 The generated hub.txt file is configured with the
 <a href="/goldenPath/help/trackDb/trackDbHub.html#useOneFile">useOneFile</a> trackDb setting, and
-as a result, each hub is limited to a single genome assembly. Editing the generated hub.txt file is
-not yet supported. To customize the hub configuration or data display, replace the generated hub.txt
-file with your own version after uploading the data files.

-click on the &quot;Hub Space&quot; section. We would love to hear your feedback on this new feature.

 <h2>Jan. 15, 2026 &nbsp;&nbsp; New ENCODE cCREs track available for human (hg38)</h2>
 <p>
 We are proud to announce a new <a href="/cgi-bin/hgTrackUi?db=hg38&c=chr7&g=cCREs&position=default"
         target="_blank">
 ENCODE Registry of cCREs (candidate Cis-Regulatory Elements)</a> 
 container track for the hg38/GRCh38 genome as described in <a target="_blank"
 href="https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-025-09909-9">Moore et al., <em>Nature</em> 2026</a>. 
 This container contains candidate Cis-Regulatory 
 Elements (cCREs) generated by the ENCODE Consortium during Phase 4 (ENCODE4) and Phase 3 (ENCODE3).
 The previous "ENCODE3 cCREs" track is retained for archival purposes. The tracks include both integrated 
 (biosample-agnostic) and biosample-specific annotations derived from core epigenomic assays.</p>
