It would be nice to have a checkbox to enable/disable workflow – it could be placed right below the “Add a breakpoint in debug mode” checkbox. This would allow us to disable workflow, but still keep it for future reference.
Example: I wanted to modify a workflow, but not lose what was already working. So, I created a copy, but I had to remove the button that triggered the worfkflow to keep it from firing.
To solve for this I usually add a “terminate workflow” action and put any “keep for future reference” workflow actions to the right of it. It won’t work with “go to” navigation workflow actions though as they need to be the furthest to the right.
