Is there a way to save my list layouts (columns displayed, in what order) to have mulitple layouts.

Deleted user July 1, 2022

I want to save my list layouts so I don't have to change them back and forth.  If I change the layout it changes for all filters.  Different layouts include different columns and the column order.

Hi @[deleted] 

Once you've saved a filter, you can go into it and click 'Columns', then choose 'Filter' at the top

This will save it for just the filter then.

Hope that helps

Thank you, Liam.

Its good to know how this works.  So for any saved filter, I can have a saved layout specific to the filter.  Got it.

Can I change the width of the columns in layout so the data wraps?

I can't see any options for that natively in Jira.  There are potential add-ons available from the marketplace (such as JXL) which could help but you'd then be paying extra for it.  I don't have any direct experience with any add-on for this so couldn't give an opinion on the add-on itself.

If you're happy with my answer, feel free to accept it :-)

Hi @[deleted]

just to add to Liam's answer, JXL for Jira can indeed help with this.

For context, JXL is a full-fledged spreadsheet/table view for your issues that allows viewing and inline-editing all your issue fields, among many other things. Depending on your use case, you can add, remove, and re-order fields, change the column widths, view your issues in hierarchy, group your issues, or view sum-ups across such groups of issues. All these configurations are saved as part of a so-called "Sheet", of which you can have as many as you want.

This is how it looks in action:

As you can see above, JXL integrates into the project sidebar, so many of our customers use it successfully as an addition to the native issue search views.

Hope this helps,

Best,

Hannes
