endPosition

A property of type integer. It is of length one (a singleton). This property is a constant, so it is not modifiable. Property Description: The last position in the chromosome contained by this genomic element.

genomicElementType

A property of type GenomicElementType object. It is of length one (a singleton). This property is a constant, so it is not modifiable. Property Description: The GenomicElementType object that defines the behavior of this genomic element.

startPosition

A property of type integer. It is of length one (a singleton). This property is a constant, so it is not modifiable. Property Description: The first position in the chromosome contained by this genomic element.

tag

A property of type integer. It is of length one (a singleton). This property is a variable, so it is modifiable. Property Description: A user-defined integer value. The value of tag is initially undefined, and it is an error to try to read it; if you wish it to have a defined value, you must arrange that yourself by explicitly setting its value prior to using it elsewhere in your code. The value of tag is not used by SLiM; it is free for you to use.
