does not immediately appear when I click in the text field. It only
appears when I start typing.</p>
<p>I find this hard to use. Now my normal workflow for tags
goes</p>
<ol>
<li>Click in tags text field</li>
<li>Type a letter</li>
<li>Delete that letter and click on the set of tags I want to apply
(if I don't delete the letter, then that letter will be added as a
separate tag)</li>
</ol>
<p>I find the current design discourages adding tags (because it
looks like there are no existing tags to choose from until you
start typing) and increases the chance of creating bad tags
(because it's easy to mistype a tag name, then click on the right
name and get both)</p></div>bentag:help.lighthouseapp.com,2008-09-20:Comment/1956122009-06-10T08:13:41Z2009-06-10T08:13:41ZPlease don't require typing to see the set of possible tags<div><p>Thank you for the input Ben. I'll pass this along to our dev
team for future refinements. I believe some of the code is fairly
new to the UI that has been added changing the tagging
functionality a bit.</p></div>Will Duncantag:help.lighthouseapp.com,2008-09-20:Comment/1956122009-08-13T05:29:57Z2012-07-20T15:35:29ZPlease don't require typing to see the set of possible tags<div><p>A Lighthouse ticket was created for this discussion</p></div>Systemtag:help.lighthouseapp.com,2008-09-20:Comment/1956122009-08-13T05:43:25Z2009-08-13T05:43:27ZPlease don't require typing to see the set of possible tags<div><p>I feel the exact same way, and it's leading to a bunch of
duplicate tags on our projects.<br>
Also, is there anyway to manage tags?</p></div>Andrew Pouliottag:help.lighthouseapp.com,2008-09-20:Comment/1956122009-08-15T06:12:58Z2012-07-20T15:36:37ZPlease don't require typing to see the set of possible tags<div><p>This discussion was assigned to Justin Palmer, on ticket

<p>I feel the new tags UI is really a step backwards,</p></div>Jeroen Janssentag:help.lighthouseapp.com,2008-09-20:Comment/1956122009-11-19T21:37:38Z2009-11-19T21:37:40ZPlease don't require typing to see the set of possible tags<div><p>I love the new tag UI, but I do see a small problem. I very much
like the type and quickly select your tag, as there are so many
other web apps that work in this fashion, but what I have noticed
is this way there is no tag list to review, so you cannot choose a
tag from a list at all, all tag assignments have to come from
memory that they exist. Even putting the tag cloud on the ticket
view page would be a help to know what's available, or possibly a
way to get a full list just by clicking in the box, and then narrow
as you type.</p>
<p>Sometimes its just nice to see what tags are out there.</p></div>Brett Staunertag:help.lighthouseapp.com,2008-09-20:Comment/1956122009-11-19T22:22:10Z2009-11-19T22:22:10ZPlease don't require typing to see the set of possible tags<div><p>bstauner: I agree that it would be nice to see a complete list
of tags to choose from. I might end up implementing some kind of
lightbox thing that shows you all tags in addition to our new tag
interface. For those who want to see the master list can, and for
those who don't won't have to worry about it cluttering the
form.</p>
<p>Thanks for the suggestion.</p></div>Justin Palmer
