(Archived) tag selection bug driving me a bit nuts

[Big Cloits 3]

I click one tag, and then I click another tag ... but the first tag stays highlighted. No modifier keys, just clicks. And then I cannot unselect. i.e. cmd-clicking one of them has no effect.

This happens constantly and seems quite buggy. Does anyone know what’s going on here? Or how to fix it?

Thanks for the report. We're rewriting the "left side" of the UI for the next version (2.0), and hoping that will fix some of the selection anomalies you see there.

YAY! Best news I've heard in a long while. That's fantastic, can't wait to see the improvements. I don't suppose you can share any info about release dates, hopefully before end of the year?

I don't think we've finalized the final release date, but I believe we're hoping to start beta testing around the end of this month. There are some big changes and additions, so we'll only do a full release when we're comfortable that everything is working smoothly.

Until 2.0 comes along, someone on these forums has pointed out that the tags (and saved searches) behave more predictably if you click to to their left, instead of directly on them. Odd, but true.

I'm looking forward to the new beta!
