Reduce mouse clicks in data entry (simple fix)
When we click on "New Observation" could the cursor/caret/focus automatically jump to the species text box. This is how it was in V.4
It only saves one mouse click but if I'm entering hundreds of observations from paper list etc it saves a lot of time.
I imagine it would be much less often that a person would click "New observation" and then want to change to checklist view or change the taxonomy.
This is already the behaviour on both Mac & Windows V5 desktop software. If it’s not working for you, please email with details on how to reproduce the issue and we’ll take a look.
Best wishes,
Justin

Thanks for the tip regarding the ENTER key. Much easier :-)

Also, note that you can press the ENTER key on any of the input fields to confirm and start a new observation.

Many thanks, sounds like a no-brainer. Auto-focusing on species input makes it no harder to user other inputs if you wanted to.
