Bug Description

In order to view copy tags in an editable dropdown menu in the web client, you must first type a letter to see available options. It would be better if values displayed as soon as the user clicks on the dropdown menu for those times when users don't exactly call the name of the copy tag.

See related bug 1618982 and bug 1691767.

I agree. The empty box is not intuitive.

In 3.9.1 the field has arrows indicating that you should be able to see a list of the pre-existing tag labels but clicking on the arrows does nothing. If you start typing in the field matching values will display in a drop down.

The list of pre-existing labels should display when you click in the field or on the arrows as it does for other fields.

summary: - Copy tag editable dropdown menu should display values without typing
+ Item tag editable dropdown menu should display values without typing
