Show execution order on Creators and Connections

Related products:Transformers

With the addition of being able to set execution order on Creator transformers and Connections a great method of workspace control has been added. This functionality is a little bit obscure, and that's fine, you don't always need to change it. But the information about that order seems more important and should be visible to the user.

I would suggest a small numbered icon that from now on would mean 'Order'. This could be shown on the corner of a Creator transformer or on the first half of a Connection to inform the user on which parts of the workspace would execute in which order. This should only be shown when there are actually multiple Creators/Connections.

Very good idea

I would really like this to quickly check if everything is implemented correctly.

 

Maybe this could be a setting in Workbench to enable/disable them? Anyway it would be nice that the numbers only show when there is enough space so they don't interfere with the transformers; something like 'scale dependent visibility' in QGIS.
