Problem/Motivation
During the usability study, some participants found the entity reference settings confusing. When they chose to add a content/image/file/term/user reference field the system would present them with another dropdown asking them which entity they would like to reference, even though they just selected the entity.


After choosing a term reference, you have to choose a term reference again.
Some users though this was a different setting they had to fill in.
Proposed resolution
If a user has just selected the entity, hide the select box to select the entity.
Remaining tasks
Patch
User interface changes
A change to the entity reference settings form
API changes
None
Data model changes
None

jmolivas commentedI will work on this one.
The idea is just to hide the label and drop down or to remove the elements from the markup ?

Also see #552604-113: Adding new fields leads to a confusing "Field settings" form and maybe #2446511: Add a "preconfigured field options" concept in Field UI for some background on this bug.
