That's right, the docs are still missing. Some of the functionality is only available in particular situations, i.e: - depending on the process itself (i.e task forms) - the type & contents of process deployments (i.e. process image) - plugin functionality (forms) Before you go ahead a d discuss UI elements, it would make more sense to think about meaningful constraints, that can be applied to process deployments. Currently the console has to cope with a lot of unknowns, which derive from the "everything possible, but nothing mandatory" style of coding that jbpm4 reflects. Up to now I tried to include functionality in the console that is applicable to most of the use cases, but of course there is much more do add. However if it only applies to a small percentage of use cases and furthermore isn't even constrained to a certain degree we cannot simply add it. I'll give you an example: Process variable inspection is one of those cases. There is currently no constraint on variables whatsoever. The "hashmap" style of design allows for everything and nothing at the same time. Of course it would be useful have that feature in the console, but without any type descriptions associated with the process it will only work in particular situations and break in others. I can list plenty of other features that have been hold back, because the core codebase doesn't allow for reliable hook into runtime inspection.
