Included workflow -> open

[#1]

Is there a one-click shortcut to open a workflow which is included in another workflow?

[#2]

If I have a workflow included in another workflow

I can right click on the included workflow and import it, then in case there is also an included one, you can do it again

which would then (if it is the final sublevel open all steps of that included workflow:

Hi Martin, I don't want to include the workflow, I want to open it - to make tiny changes and save it.

compare:

If there is an error in the included workflow, it stays open after JMP encounters the error.

ah got you, editing of the included workflow would be possible in my approach but not saving the changes I made back to the included workflow itself, just to the final workflow (incl. the included workflow). Agree it would be a nice option to "save included workflow" or "open included workflow outside workflow", of course with a better wording ;)

At this time, you would need to edit the included workflow and fix the issues there - and then it should run before you retry running the workflow you just fixed.  Also, not knowing what the error might be, if you are referencing files, it is sometimes helpful to package the workflow together -- even the included one, so that file references are made temporary, and things might run more smoothly.  There is minimal JSL scripting you can do with workflow, but it was not designed to be scripted like all of JSL.

It's not just about 'fixing errors'.
Fun fact: if there is an error in the included workflow, JMP will stop while running it and the workflow will stay open. This is similar to the 'open' functionality, which I miss, but you need an error in the included workflow to access this feature.

Besides debuging, it's also about understanding an existing master workflow and taking a look at an included workflow to see what's going on.

Some users may be familiar with LabVIEW and its sub-VIs. Workflow Builder, with its ability to include other workflows, is like a draft version of this concept. Error handling is already included.

The ability to open an included workflow will give the users even more of the work-with-subVIs-feeling.

a framework for input and output variables.
