Custome field that bahaves like component/labels

[Olga Videc]

Hello, 

I have created a custom field with multiple choices I want it to behave like labels/component's, I followed this part

https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Answers-Developer-Questions/Can-I-have-multi-select-custom-field-behave-like-components/qaq-p/537755#U1056544

And created the filed, which behaves like that but the part I can't achieve is the shaded part behind the choices, now they are divided by comma, when I hit edit it shows with shaded bubble but when I click ok it disappears and choices are divided by comma.

Example

Did you look at this? https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/how-to-enable-autocomplete-renderer-for-multi-select-custom-field-in-jira-754978239.html

It seems to be exactly what you're trying to do here.

Also the thread you're referring is very complete in terms of solution, did you try to WideDarkTheme proposed there?

It seems to have worked with everyone else, so i'm pretty sure that would work for you as well :)
