I'm wondering if it would be possible to make workflow annotations visible when running a workflow, currently they are only visible when a shared workflow is viewed. We create workflows for various galaxy users and it would be useful to provide instructions next to each step where user input is required. Required input is not always clear in the context of a workflow.
This is a very good idea. I've created an issue for this request and you can track its progress here:
Also, since the last update of galaxy I am having issues with the peek view on history items. The dataset expands to show the extra information but immediately collapses again.
This problem has been fixed in galaxy-central, so if you're pulling from there go ahead and do an update. If you're working from galaxy-dist or using our main webserver, the fix will be available when we perform our next update, which should happen in the next couple weeks.
Thanks,
J.
