It would be cool if multiple labels could be applied at the same time, rather than having to go through multiple times to click on the labels field, then find the label (annoying if you have to scroll far to get to your label) and click on it.

I'm imagining checkboxes in this dropdown list so that labels could be added or removed in one fell swoop.

I think the easiest way to achieve this would be to simply not close the select dropdown after selecting a label. That would allow selecting a bunch of labels after one another.

But selecting a single label closes the dropdown automatically. At least in the lastest Chrome that I'm using.

Yup, what I meant was a proposed solution to implement.

Currently, on try.vikunja.io, I do not see this issue as fixed. When adding new labels, the drop down does not appear at all. It will only appear when I start to type. I liked being able to see the first few labels without having to start to search for them.

Also, this is unrelated, but the "<-- Close popup" link only seems to appear when clicking on a task from the Kanban view.

Ah so you'd want to start it open with no search text entered when clicking on it? (With no search text entered)

That's a feature. The kanban board is the only place where it opens the task in a popup.

Oh, I didn't realize that was a special feature for Kanban. I went on 'try' and used the default list view, and then couldn't find the (X) close button or the link and got very confused.

I almost always use Kanban.
