Hi Paul,

I hope the team does not mind that I am doing this by just sending my log which undoubtedly contains duplications, but it saves me the time to check them against your 10 pages first :-[ 
Hopefully, I will raise some new issues that affect other users as well. Also note that I haven't added any priority estimate. I'm sure that you and others will help the team with that :-)

Thanks!
Marco.

Hi,

Most of these are known to the developers. I wrote a 10 page report on 
issues and bugs, which have all been captured in Jira. I say 10 pages, 
it is more like 5 since the pages are half that of A4.
Hopefully these will be prioritised and fixed soon (some even in the 
next release!)

Some good ones you thought of though are the deleting of things. I 
missed those!!

Paul.

Please find more of my comments and questions while using Taverna 2 below:

T2 usage notes - part II

    I would like to be able to use the delete key of my keyboard for a 
selected item in a workflow.
    Is it possible to put the edit options for a workflow input or 
output in the contextual view?
        Could you display the list depth in the contextual views? Even 
if I can't change them, the list depth is important information for 
subsequent activities such as nested workflows (what depth should the 
input be?) or my own java beanshells (what should be the depth of the 
input port?).
    In the results perspective windows refresh seems to not work all the 
times when I click on a result (i.e. I keep seeing the result of a 
previous selection in a list of results (NB I have been experiencing 
such problems in general with Java applications on my laptop in the 
past, so this might be a problem outside of T2).
    I need to be able to see the workflow inputs in the results perspective.
    Is it still necessary to have the input of a processor connected 
before the output can be connected to something, as it was in T1?
    Would it be possible to show the inputs/outputs when moving over a 
processor, such to make it easier to connect processors interactively?
        In general, in-place 'move over' information (and actions) could 
be a useful addition.
    Would it be possible to give warnings when connecting ports of 
unequal list depth?
    The 'trick' to import a workflow (e.g. with beanshells) to the 
activities palette was very convenient in T1. How do I add my own 
beanshells to the activities?
    Could it be made possible to drag and drop workflows and 
actitivities to the workbench?
    When I have an error in my beanshell, it seems the error message in 
the workbench is truncated with respect to the console; can it be made 
so I see the full text in the workbench? (I do like the tree view of the 
stack trace.)
    Could it be visually indicated that a processor, e.g. a beanshell, 
went wrong in addition to the error message on its output?
    Is it a new feature that empty lists, although not shown in the 
output per sé, do always exist? === THIS HAS BEEN ADDRESSED IN A 
SEPARATE THREAD ===
        I one case I have a nested workflow that has as input a list of 
items and as output a list for each of these items, except that in some 
cases an item is skipped and fewer lists are returned. E.g. it can start 
with three items as input while the output is two lists. When I add a 
beanshell that does output=list.size(), it gives three results of which 
one is 0. Is that as expected?
        If this is the case, would it not be more insightful to make 
these empty lists visible in the output in some way? To avoid confusion? 
Or maybe a little warning that empty lists were found, but omitted?
    Are imported (new) actitivities stored for next time I use Taverna? 
If not, could this be made an option?
    Is it correct that I can't delete services once they have been added 
to the actitivies?
    Can I clone or copy selected beanshells in a workflow?
    At some point I received an SVG error upon starting a workflow:
        SVG Error: <unknown> The attribut "fill" represents an invalid 
CSS value ("#66cd00").
        Original message:
            org.w3c.dom.DOMException: <unknown>:
The attribute "fill" represents an invalid CSS value ("#66cd00").
