Hi Ian,
There is a ticket in Trello to enable manual reordering. You can track the progress of future development by following it:
For now, if you click on the "i" info icon for any dataset, the input dataset will be shown at the bottom of the form (we realize this is tedious for larger workflows/histories).
Regarding the last part of your question, the creation summary vs the history order, I'll forward this to Dannon (our primary workflow developer) so that he can take a look. If a new ticket is created, or there is other advice/a change made, we'll send an update reply.
Thanks for the feedback!

When i create a GALAXY workflow the order of the steps in the summary are fine until the main pipeline diverges into multiple branches. Then the steps from the different branches get shuffled in the summary and it is difficult to see what is going on.
*Q. Is it possible to manually reorder steps in a GALAXY workflow summary?*
There used to a problem where workflows with multiple inputs would randomise the order of the inputs each time the workflow was run. Now the proximity of the inputs to the top left-hand edge of the workflow dictates the precedence.
Also, if i manually run the steps one at a time in order in a history and create a workflow from that, in the creation summary (just before making the workflow) everything is in order, however when the workflow is run the order has been messed up.
Thanks, Ian
