I'm creating a custom data types that use's existing data types. I'm unable to find a way to get the data types view to allow me to use the built-in Umbraco directive. Any ideas or suggests of any existing Umbraco resources?
In the last part i explain how to reuse existing datatypes. I don't know if the code is up to date, it's more than 3 years old, but it should give you an idea on how to do this.
Another good option is to have a peak the Vorto or Archetype source code. There existing datatypes are reused as well.

Hi Harry,
could you explain more about what you are trying to accomplish? Can you show us what you have so that we can understand it more?
What kind of DataType are you using?
Which Umbraco Directive do you want to include?
Maybe you want to create a custom property editor? https://our.umbraco.org/documentation/extending/property-editors/
Thanks!
