Hi,
There's a small bug with the "hide dataset" button in the workflow editor - once any dataset is marked as "output" (by clicking on the star icon), there's no way to show all the datasets, even if the user manually un-checked every star icon for every workflow step.
meaning: If I have a workflow that *used* to have one step marked as "output", unmarking it (so that no dataset is marked is "output", implying all datasets should be retained in the history) doesn't work - galaxy insists on hiding all the other datasets.
Steps to reproduce:
- Import this workflow:
http://main.g2.bx.psu.edu/u/foobar/w/hiddendatasetstest2
- Edit this workflow.
Notice that only the last two steps are marked as "output". don't change anything, close with (or without) saving.
- Run this workflow.
Notice that Steps 1,2,3,5,6 have "Action: Hide this dataset." - as expected. Only steps 4,7 are marked as "output". No need to actually execute the workflow.
- Edit the workflow again.
Remove the "output" mark from steps 4,7 ("Add Column" and "compute"). No dataset is marked as output - at least from the user POV, it's implied that all datasets should be kept in the history (just like when editing a new workflow). Save the workflow, close the workflow.
- Run this workflow.
Notice that steps 1,2,3,5,6 STILL have "Action: hide this dataset" - this is the bug.
So the only workaround is to run the workflow, then "extract workflow from history" to get a "clean" copy of the workflow without any datasets hidden.
Thanks to Marek Kudla for meticulously experimenting with this issue.
