Hi,
the configuration of nodes usign flow variables can become quite labor intensive. Drawing inspiration from the knime-specific classes from the CSS Styling for JavaScript Views:
.knime-title {
fill: green;
font-weight: bold;
}
text.knime-tick-label {
font-style: italic;
font-size: 16px;
}
I wonder if something similar for flow variables wouldn’t be a nice feature to add. Predefined and reserved variables following a syntax like:
Syntax: knime.[Node Name].[Function]
Example: knime.GrouBy.IncList
Could be leveraged to auto-configure a node without the manual configuring of each single flow variable.
It would also allow to programmatically / conditionally reconfigure and I cannot fathom the possiblites that feature would open.
Best
Mike
