At the moment the user interface doesn't reflect correctly that there are already topics for some types (numbers in brackets) and the base doesn't contain all views that should exist. Maybe this is because I deleted and recreated some types to start over. Do I simply have to wait for cashing mechanisms?

Freebase does cache things aggressively, so this is a possible explanation. You can bypass the cache by pressing F8, scrolling down to the popup at the bottom of the page and then clicking on "Refresh cache".
Hope this helps.

It should work; I assume there's an onclick handler on the a node which fires off an XMLHttpRequest, but I haven't actually fired up my network analyzer to check.
All that option is doing is using the /api/service/touch service provided by Freebase, so it's not a user permissions issue. -
Hey polojan,
If you're talking about the topic counts that show up when you click on the "schema" tab, those are updated nightly. It's slow to run, so we have a process that updates the counts every so often, rather than trying to do it on the fly.
If types that you can see in your Schema tab are missing from the views on the base homepage, I'd check a) are they on the "all views" page and just need to be "featured"? b) are they CVTs? CVTs don't have a view created on the homepage by default.
To confirm what pak21 said: clicking "refresh cache" in the dev toolbar will just access the touch API using javascript; you don't see anything on the page, but it does happen.

Thanks for the hint with the "all views" page. I could create the views manually now. However in the "schema" tab still only the "Result View" Type says it contains 4 items. None of the others. Something seems to be still wrong. Of course I could live without that, but I fear something's wrong with my types in general for there are some other issues that I'll post in another thread.

As I understood Compound Types should be used to model n-ary relationships. I'd like to express that a certain browser has a certain feature and add more details about this relationship. E.g. if this counts for all facets, who can configure the feature, etc. Why do I have to restrict the properties of the compound type to "1"? E.g., I'd like to add more than one possible Actor to the relationship. One more related question: Is there a way to use a return/back property via this complex relationship that will show me all browsers supporting a certain feature? Unfortunatly I get a lot of errors, so that I cannot find out by trial.
