Context
While testing plotlink-ows@1.2.94 on the cartoon story god-cell, the current workflow guidance is easy to miss. The primary next step is rendered as small inline text (Next: Review cuts and start lettering) plus a nearby button whose label repeats the action text. The same action also appears in multiple file/tab contexts, which makes it unclear what the operator should do next.
Problem
The UI does not make the next task visually or behaviorally obvious enough. The next action should be a consistent, prominent control instead of a small status row with duplicated copy.
Proposed UX
Add a persistent cartoon workflow Next Action area, preferably anchored in the lower-right of the workflow panel or otherwise consistently placed in the right pane.
The UI should show:
- A clear text summary:
Next: Review cuts and start lettering
- A single prominent button labeled
Next Action
- Button size should be at least comparable to the left sidebar
+ New Story button
- The same button label should be used across workflow tabs and navigation surfaces:
Next Action
- Avoid duplicating the full action text inside both the summary and the button
Acceptance Criteria
Notes
Observed on god-cell where clean images are ready and the next workflow action is lettering. This should generalize to other cartoon workflow stages.
