Here's the Workflow Visualizer:

We should make the Workflow Vis look and feel more like the Topology view. This is a significant undertaking and should be broken down into a number of areas:

1) Toolbar & related actions 2) Legend 3) Look and feel of nodes/links 4) Node details (hovering over/clicking on a node) 5) The layout algorithm determining where to place the nodes (currently Dagre) 6) The workflow visualizer is currently full-screen but topology is not (should probably align)

There are probably other improvements that can be made so that the two look and feel like they come from the same application
