nope - a basic facility would be quite easy to implement - although I'd 
ideally also like some kind of mapping to be preserved between the 
original sequence and the complement. This would be in the same way that 
translated dna sequences retain a mapping between them and their protein 
products - a feature which is being introduced in Jalview 2.4.

this is the right forum - but I'm not sure if you've posted before 
(although I did recover your email from a few years ago!).

thanks for the feature request.
