Hi, it would be really nice if I could take a work flow and save it as a tool. This way one could easily build custom text-manipulation tools from already existing text tools. I already have a work flow that does a conversion job. But it has lots of of steps that make my histories quite messy when I apply it. Is there a way to condense the steps in the history view, so you can only see the name of a work flow and not all the separate steps? thx, Felix

You would normally setup the workflow to hide all the intermediate output files, leaving just those outputs of interest to be shown in the history. Mark these with the "snowflake" icon in the workflow editor. Peter

I've done that. The intermediate outputs are hidden. But all the steps are still displayed. I want to hide those, too. Felix

I'm unclear which bit(s) you want to hide in the GUI. With the recent enhancements, the "run workflow" dialogue where you choose any options to the workflow, although still shown any step not taking options is now collapsed by default. This makes things much nicer as an end user. I do like the idea of treating a multi-step workflow as a single tool though... this would be especially helpful for connecting workflows together - one way to tackle this feature request: https://bitbucket.org/galaxy/galaxy-central/issue/52/subworkflows Peter
