Cannot import FASTA database with sequences in lowercase fcsigloch  2019-12-10 00:28
 

Hi.
When trying to import a FASTA protein database with some sequences in lowercase, Skyline fails to process the database, but gives no error message. It took me some time to find out what the problem was. Converting all sequences to UPPERCASE solved the problem.

It would be great, if you could provide support for lowercase libraries or at least give some meaningful error message.

Greetings from Bavaria,
Florian
