Why taxonomy template doesn't have access to the loop? It shows only template of the each post design. When custom type is providing the full access, including the loop edit. So I was set the same template for the custom post archive and the custom taxonomy archive, but it's not correct - I will have different blocks for them. The absence of loop edit looks like a bug, pls check it.

Sorry, I don't understand your question.

You say the loop edit section is missing from a custom taxonomy archive, but you can see it in my screenshot.

Perhaps you could share a screenshot to explain the problem.

When I create it here: /wp-admin/admin.php?page=view-templates&arrangeby=usage&usage=taxonomy-archives

Then I have such a limited design. So ok, as I got, I can just add second archive template?

I'm still not quite sure what the problem is.

If you go to Toolset > Content Templates and add a new template for an archive then you can customise what would be output for each post in the loop (specifically what is output by the_content() function in your theme's archive PHP template).

You get the normal edit screen with the Fields and Views button for inserting custom and standard fields etc., and the template editor is the same whether you are adding a custom post archive or a custom taxonomy archive.

But the list of posts that is displayed in the archive is not altered in any way, it is the list of posts generated by WordPress.

If you want more control over the archive you can go to Toolset > WordPress Archives and create and assign a custom archive, where you can also add search filters, pagination etc., and where you can either directly add fields to the loop section, or you can use the Loop Wizard and link a template to be used to design the archive output.
