- **Blocks file** (`--blocks-file`): TSV with columns `seq1, start1, end1, seq2, start2, end2, strand`.

```
# sequences.tsv
name    length
Chr1A   2800000
Chr1B   2650000

# blocks.tsv
seq1   start1  end1    seq2   start2  end2    strand

| `--bar-height <PX>` | `18.0` | Sequence bar height in pixels |
| `--opacity <F>` | `0.65` | Block ribbon opacity |
| `--proportional` | off | Scale bar widths proportionally to sequence length |
| `--legend <LABEL>` | — | Show legend |
