Please add universal data type icons in the Modern UI. Incorrect data types tend to complicate and block the ETL process especially for new users. (For a very basic example: GroupBy can’t calculate Sum on a string column containing all numbers.)
The easier it is to see the data types during configuration or in the monitor windows, the more obvious the issues become.
Icons would also be a more obvious clue (and screen real estate efficient) in the “node monitor” view vs the current small italic font under the Column Name. It should be a uniform platform-wide data type icon as much as possible.
What about the preview and the tab that lists the columns? I haven’t checked it myself as I do not have infinite time so my question might be irrelevant …
In node dialog boxes where columns are listed, it used to be quite handy being able to see the column type besides just the name of the column (i.e. Double, Integer, String). This information has been lost in the newly designed nodes like Column Filter node.
Please can you add back this information.
Thanks,
Simon.
