    If you are running multiple visualisations this calculation will be completed every time. To avoid
    this re-run your assignment with ``--update-db``, which will add these distances in permanently.
 
+If you are only interested in visualising sequences that are closely-related to those in a set of
+query sequences, then the quickest approach is to use the ``--save-partial-query-graph`` option
+when assigning sequences. This will generate a list of sequences spanning both your queries, and all
