Hi,
in the "Schedule and upload" workflow the scissors for cutting the video is visible afterwards, but when i run the "Publish" workflow, the scissors are missing. 
And I can't find the specific difference between the workflows.

Earlier i could make it visible by inserting
    <configuration key="flagForCutting">true</configuration>
in the defaults. But that has no effect anymore.

How do i get it back?

Regards,
Hartmut

Hi Hartmut,

You need to add the following somewhere in your workflow:

<operation
  id="comment"
  if="${flagForCutting}"
  description="Mark the recording for cutting">
  <configurations>
    <configuration key="description">Recording has not been cut yet.</configuration>
    <configuration key="reason">EVENTS.EVENTS.DETAILS.COMMENTS.REASONS.CUTTING</configuration>
    <configuration key="action">create</configuration>
  </configurations>
</operation>

The config key you're talking about is setting a flag in the workflow, but the workflow doesn't actually *do* anything with that flag unless you tell it to :)

The relevant change was this one https://github.com/opencast/opencast/pull/2573, which went into 11.x.

Hi Greg,

that adds a speech bubble with the comment "Recording has not been cut yet." but no scissors.

I think something is still missing.
