Be Able to Identify the Different Workflow Types

Currently when you create workflows in BA Studio, there is no way to tell wether the new workflow is BPM or Case related. The only way one would know is that they are told or go through the various workflows until you stumble upon the one you want. This would just be beneficial for the IBM community but for customers as sell.

    Scott, I am on the https://bas-dev-demo-americas-10 tenant looking at the filters in Studio, and it does not show an option for filtering by "contains case"...The only types I get are: All, Decision, Document Processing, Workflow, External Workflow,...and the sorting is either Recently Updated or Alphabetical (A-Z).

    Today there is a filter you can use when you are looking at your workflow projects. By default it shows All types of workflow projects. But you can change that filter to only show workflow projects that contain case features. When this is set then ONLY the projects with case features are shown.

    When I initially created this one, I must have set this to private viewing. Is there a way to change it so that it is visible to a wider audience, for voting? Also, is there a way to correct the grammar errors. It should read as follows:
