It seems like this version is GREAT as long as you don't need to use it :-) Lastly, how many years has it been that we've been asking to remove the double spacing?? So these changes are not for us, the community.

On the detail view, how do I change the list of items in a filter to just show one line of text rather than the whole title?  The way the "new experience" is now, it takes up way more real estate on my screen so I have to scroll to see the whole list, even when there are only a few issues displayed.

Being able to change the width of the list would be nice too.  I used to be able to do that.  Can't now.

It sure would be nice if the browser tab would show the name of the filter or dashboard being displayed in the new version.  The way I use JIRA is to have several tabs open with the filters I use all the time in them. The old version would display the filter name in the tab. The new version displays the item number in the tab. This is completely unhelpful.

Whenever I search for text that looks like it *might* be a JIRA issue number, but NEVER is, instead of just searching for the text as requested, JIRA jumps over to the JQL view and adds OR issuekey = "xxxxx-###" as below:
textfields ~ "transtar-558" OR issuekey = "transtar-558" ORDER BY created DESC

This never returns any results until I remove the OR part of the statement.


This is entirely unhelpful and it didn't do this before being forced to use the "new" search version

@JoAnn Pruden can you get around it with escaping your double quotes? e.g. "\"transtar-556\""

I agree you shouldn't have to. I am so tired of the attempts at "helping" that just get in the way :(

@Anne Saunders Nope. It doesn't work with or without the quotes.  And I agree.  I really hate that it's trying to be smarter than me, because it clearly isn't. ;)
