I think this may be a limitation with the workflow forms... there is much less dynamism in the workflow run dialog then in the tool run dialog. I think Aysam is working on workflow modifications that will bring these various forms closer together - I don't know if that will be enough to implement this or not.

Sorry for the bad news.

Hi,
We have our own local instance of Galaxy from the 15.03.2 release. I have developed a tool that works perfectly well normally but cannot get it integrated into a workflow as we would like.
My tool's input form has 3 select menus that use a .loc file (using “from_file” in the options tag) to dynamically load the select options depending on the selected option in the previous field .
The problem we see in the workflows happens in the following manner:
For the choice of input1 (A or B), there should be a subsequent menu with options for input2 (1,2,3 or 4,5,6 respectively). The select menu input1 is automatically populated with A as this is the first option in the file, and thus the second menu is automatically populated with 1, 2, and 3. However, when you try to select B as input1 the following message is shown:
An invalid option was selected for input2, u’1, please verify.
The select menu for input1 is then immediately reverted back to A. I can never select B.
Is there a way to get the dynamically loaded select menus to work in workflows?
Many thanks.
Joanna
