It might become a bit more cluttered, perhaps if we reintroduced the 'Set as boring' feature we had in Taverna 1? Then the String constant and it's links would be hidden by default from the graphical view. Do you think this could be a good solution? The string constant would still be listed in the Workflow Explorer so that one could change the value. (We've also wanted to have extended 'Boring' support for shims so that you could also hide things in the middle of the workflow, this never worked in Taverna 1 - but it could be useful to kind of 'collapse' non-interesting shim processors and just have a little dot on the data link) -- Stian Soiland-Reyes, myGrid team School of Computer Science The University of Manchester ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ OpenSolaris 2009.06 is a cutting edge operating system for enterprises looking to deploy the next generation of Solaris that includes the latest innovations from Sun and the OpenSource community.
