Unable to add a tag on Android

Open albertvanveen opened this issue 9 months ago • 7 comments

It seems to be impossible to add a tag to an entity without a physical keyboard. For some reason the enter key of a virtual keyboard is not recognized.

A possible solution is to add the tag when the input field loses focus, similar to how changes are applied when other elements lose focus.

That would lead to unintentional tags additions, as before unfocusing a field, user would have to clear it.

The solution here is to ensure that the virtual enter is working.

I don't think you'll often type something you don't want to add, so having to remove it doesn't seem like an issue. (If you type something in another input field that you don't want to keep, you also have to manually revert it).

Additionally, I've encountered forum issues where users mistakenly thought the tag had been added in the example below.

Seems this is fixed.

This doesn't work on Android.

The correct solution is to always apply changes after leaving the input field. Currently, this behavior is inconsistent across different input fields.

I have updated the issue title.

Sorry, I didn't know the behavior on IOS was correct.

On the video, I show why I think the behavior is inconsistent. The tag isn’t applied when leaving the field, whereas the value change is applied when leaving the field. In both cases, the Enter key isn’t used.

To be honest, the behavior is the same (the text stays in place in both cases), but the outcome isn’t.
