Hi, it would be much better if one could type the letters of issuing authority and others at adding new coins/banknotes, instead of scrolling. It takes ages to find something in the end of the list, to scroll down forever... don't you think? So to make it like the country search at browsing.
I have no idea what you are talking about typing has worked since the drop-down menues were implemented.
You just can't be to slow at typing or you might end up where you didn't want to go.
Typing doesn't work there, if I understand you well... (?) You have to scroll and scroll and scroll and scroll to reach Vietnam, for example, because there are like infinitive issuing authorities.
TKemmer, there is no empty box to write a name or part of a name, but just typ a letter and the drop down menu jumps to that letter. So for Vietnam just typ V. And you can even type Vietnam. Althoug there is no box where you can follow what you type, the list jumps to what you type. But like Idolenz says, don't typ to slow because then the following letter will be again the first letter of a new search.
I use Numista from phone. So typing there is not an option. Keyboard doesn't pop up.
Sure it works with phone as well

​No, you're talking about something else. I meant when you add a coin/note and want to choose issuing authority.
He means this one:



And because there is no empty box to write in your keyboard probably doesn't pop up (I can't check this, I don't have a smart Phone). And then it is indeed an endless list to scroll to.

Sorry, it's like this.

​I have to wait about 10 seconds when I enter the search area before it shows up like it does for apuking.
