Increase the advanced user productivity when he creates a new Data Type ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: DROOLS-3784 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/DROOLS-3784 Project: Drools Issue Type: Epic Components: DMN Editor Affects Versions: 7.18.0.Final Reporter: Donato Marrazzo Assignee: Liz Clayton Priority: Minor Labels: drools-tools Attachments: Screenshot from 2019-03-25 15-27-51.png, type-selector.png The Data Type editor could be improved in terms of productivity and usability. Ideally, the user should be able to create a complex type minimizing the mouse usage. 1) Saving the node is an overhead for basic data type (e.g. age: number) 2) Some actions in the kebab menu should be more visible and available even before saving the type (as standalone icon / buttons). Especially, insert nested, delete. 3) Select type in the selector by typing the name of the type (see screenshot): it already works but it consider just the first letter typed. Since, by convention, all custom types starts with `t` letter, it would be better consider at least 2 letters.
