I assume that you use the ``styled'' view of the W3C XML Schema. [1] Insert a xs:simpleType. [2] Use the *Replace* icon found at the top of the xs:list child of the newly inserted xs:simpleType element. It looks like this: | ^ \__/ [3] This icon will popup a menu containing: xs:list, xs:restriction, xs:union. Choose a replacement for the xs:list child. Alternatively, select the xs:list child of the xs:simpleType element by clicking on it, then use command Replace found in the Edit menu and in the Edit tool. --- PS: In case you prefer having newly created xs:simpleTypes contain xs:restrictions instead of xs:lists, you need to modify the XXE configuration of W3C XML Schemas and specify the proper cfg:elementTemplate. See http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/configure/ch06s09.html We should have done that a long time ago but we haven't, by pure laziness.
