Hi Radmatt, cool application you got going here!

Currently using your tool, hopefully it all goes well.
I do have some points of feedback:

* When doing file extensions (when selecting a path), it's for instance possible to put dots in front of the extension name
For instance, ".prefab". This results in it searching for "..prefab" and finding nothing. Maybe it's a good idea to remove any dots from the extension text when entering it.

* Would be cool to have relative paths for each entry. Relative to project is already a neat feature.
I guess I can do one path per database. Although having it more customizable would be cool.
I'd use favorites instead, but I have no idea how to.
 
* For file paths, having a option to just fill in the object name instead of the full path would also be cool.
Maybe a "file" property? Or just a checkbox would suffice

* I often use F2 to rename files, it's not available right now in this application

This is what I can come up with right now in my initial use.
I'll place more comments in here once I've found more nitpicks.

Anyways, great software you got going here. Keep up the good work!

When changing a field, and switching an element. It does not apply the changes. I have to click away first and then switch.

When creating new property types, it seems I'm unable to remove any previously made values.
This happened for me when having a "Reference" value at the end.

It seems that exporting does not take the order of elements into account. Instead it is done alphabetically.
Is there a way to get the JSON exported in-order of the elements in the last?
