The Galaxy user can manually edit them (or do this in a workflow).
The Galaxy tool authors have some control as well, e.g. $on_string
Eg. "Compute sequence length on data 1" isn't very
descriptive, but if
perhaps the annotation field or a description field could be added it would
make identification much easier eg. "Compute sequence length on data 1
[Burkholderia pseudomallei K96243]" or even for datatypes that have a
defined definition line, perhaps a mouse-over hover could be added with the
accession or definition pulled from the input file? These mouse-over hovers
are already used to identify the view, edit, and delete icons so no
additional libraries wold be used.
I could probably hack something up but thought it better to try and get the
feature included.
Any thoughts?
Thanx,
There's been some past discussion of this from a tool developer
perspective, e.g.
https://trello.com/c/JnhOEqow and
http://dev.list.galaxyproject.org/Using-input-dataset-names-in-output-dat...
See also the "Inheritance Chain" accessed via the "i" icon of
a dataset in your history. That might be tool much for a tooltip :(
