Hi Just to clarify the issue of custom transformers and their appearance in the transformer gallery, which a couple of you had queried...
1) There was a fault where transformers might not appear in the gallery until they had been located using the search tool. This is now reported as fixed. 2) The "Custom Transformers" section of the gallery has been renamed to "Embedded Transformers". Custom transformers will only appear here once they have been placed in the workspace in an embedded mode. Hopefully the renaming will clarify this. BTW, I think the reason for this behaviour is to create a separate list of embedded transformers. This is because if you make an edit to that transformer it is no longer the same as the one listed in the ALL part of the gallery, and there needs to be a way to differentiate the two. At least, that's the explanation that springs to mind. Linked transformers don't appear here (presumably because you can't edit them until they've been embedded). Hope this explains. The fix + change will probably be in build 4250 onwards. If anyone would really like to see a folder that contains all custom transformers (used or not) then let me know and I can raise it as an enhancement request.
