When typing tags, if there is only one suggestion left, it would be nice if that tag was automatically selected so it can be entered by hitting ENTER.
As it is now, I often accidentally create new tags by hitting ENTER before selecting the existing tag.
For instance, in the screenshot above, I might create a tag “type:spe” when I intended to make “type:spelling”.
I would like to bump this. The current design makes it easy to create new tags, while (relatively) hard to select existing tags. A good UI design would do the opposite. Most of the time, a user will want to use an existing tag instead of creating a new tag that only has a piece of the string in an existing tag.
On a related note, I would like to see the tag selector be a bit more clever about matching the selected text. If I have a tag named “type:spelling”, then it would be nice if it were shown when I type “typesp”.
Won’t this make it difficult to create new tags?
ran into the same issue! One workaround I found is to use custom CSS to adjust the modal size to your needs. You can target the modal class and set a specific width and height, which gives you more control than the default large/full-screen options.
No, not necessarily. You could have the menu show the existing tag (which is automatically selected) and an option to “Create new tag” that the user would have to explicitly select
Use the Tab key
