New 'Edit Product Details' Tag Section Is Too Sensitive

Not sure if this is a technical issue, or even an A/B test. But the new ‘edit tags’ section in the ‘Edit Product Details’ area on the backend is too sensitive. Even if I click in the wrong spot within the inside of the tags window, it counts as an ‘enter’ and will input the tags even if I’m not done. It’s caused me to mess up several times already today. We need to be able to move around the window when editing, especially existing tags.

For example, once I clicked exactly where the mouse cursor (not the line next to the word) is shown below, it input ‘testing’ as a new tag.

Yes, I’ve noticed that as well. It happens whenever I click a bit above or below the text line within the text box.

When I first saw the updated tags section, I thought we could now rearrange tags by position, which would be incredibly useful!

Hi @Jo_P,

Thank you for your feedback. I highlighted this with our team here to investigate further.

Thank you,

Thanks @Padraig I’ve also noticed now that it happens if you try to click in front of the first tag word.

That would be a nice feature too, to be able to drag them!

@SheaPrints So did I! But then I tried to drag a tag to no avail…

It also happens at the end too, ugh! I can’t tell you how many times today this sensitivity has screwed up my tags.

This seems to be happening whenever you click outside the tag box (or click somewhere that isn’t directly in front of or in the word being typed), like an auto save feature. I think this is intentional and will take some getting used to, but as Padraig said above, your feedback has been noted.

@James_H I expect it to do that when I click outside of the box, yes. But the problem is it is happening when I click inside the box where we all normally would, to be able to move around to work. Directly in front of the first word (as close as you can possibly click to the letter), directly behind the last word, or above or below the words (even still touching the words), but all still clicking inside the box.

@Padraig @James_H I just noticed the ‘Edit Title’ on the post for sale page is doing this same touchy behavior when clicking within the box.
