-----------------------------------------
Hi [~uxdlc] ,
I understand the UI consistency goal that PatternFly aim to, but I believe that it should
not limit the user experience: so if PatternFly does not define a method to tackle this
problem, maybe we should propose an improvement for it.
Please, try to create the data structures that I attached, I think that you will come at
the some conclusion that we need a more convenient way to insert new fields.
Even that existing Data Object modeller is more comfortable in creating multiple fields.

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: Guilherme Carreiro
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.
