Flow Trace Ideas

Here are some ideas for flow traces:

  • Jump to Block button. Would show up on all trace “blocks” and when clicked it would go to the block in the flow editor.
  • Highlight Variables. Wherever a variable is parsed into a normal value it would highlight it a low-opacity blue. Hovering would have a little popover that says what the variable is and has an option to go to the variable’s origin block.
  • Block Filters. Can set filters for what blocks are down. E.g. only show if statement that returned true. There’s probably more that would be useful, but I can’t think of them lol
  • Hide Block from Traces. When the checkbox is enabled it would hide it in this and all future traces. There would be a toggle in the filters menu to show hidden blocks (maybe ones marked as hidden would be lower opacity?)
