Make Mental Status option lists fully scrollable (not just containing 10 items)

In Progress Notes > Mental Status: when clicking within a space to enter a term for any of the Mental Status categories, I recommend programming the display to provide a fully scrollable list of all available descriptors rather than just displaying ten options at a time as is currently the case. (This would only apply to those categories for which more than ten options are available.) If the user starts typing a descriptor, the list should start with the descriptor closest to the typed one as it currently does, but the list should be fully scrollable upward and downward to allow for review of all of the pre-listed options. This programming modification will provide the user with a very useful, comprehensive reminder of all available mental status standard descriptors in the list per category, and won’t limit the user to an arbitrarily constricted list of only ten options.

    It would be very helpful and time-saving if in the options under Mental Status (e.g. Perception, Judgement...) there was a scroll bar so all the options that are suggested can be seen. Thanks, Kevin

    I work with trainee therapists and scrolling a list would be very helpful as they develop their clinical vocabulary.

    Folks at our clinic are thrilled to be switching over to EMR after years of paper based system. This feature would be vastly helpful for all professionals and invaluable for training clinicians. I believe this feature alone will make theranest stand out for training clinics looking to update longstanding paper systems. Thank you for all the innovation and ease of access you are bringing to the therapy field for the many particular needs we have. Definitely the best UI I have seen thus far.

    I concur with Philip. It would make choosing much easier. James Casper, Psy.D.

    I concur with Philip. I hope that the capacity to scroll through the menus is added ASAP. Scott Goode, PhD

    I prefer drop down menu choices for mental status, demographics. Also would like to be able to store pre-written options as many of my clients have a similar note included in each eval, and it is tiresome to re-type over and over. I do assessments in nursing homes, and often use the same verbage to describe treatment needs
