Keyboard shortcuts for next and prev issue dont work when viewing an issue

On the Project -> Issues -> Open Issues view, the j and k keys work to scroll up and down the issue list, with o to open the issue.

One would expect the j and k keys to work, to move to next and prev issues, but they do not.  Other keys like [, w and i work, so unsure what is wrong .

are there some other shortcuts to move to next issue, after it's open?

is there a shortcut to return to the list view ?

Hi again @Mahesh Khambadkone , 

 

Well, when you go to the Issues at the left sidebar the shortcuts will act as navigator -> down and up. 

Try to go at the Board and then click on any issue and use К and J. In my case, this is working and the issues are moving -> next & previous

Hi @Mahesh Khambadkone 

Here is the link for Jira Keyboard Shortcuts

Have in mind the following: 

"The new Jira issue view supports a limited set of keyboard shortcuts (o to open the selected issue, a to assign the issue to someone, i to assign an issue to yourself, or m to quickly add a comment) for editing and updating issues. It also supports navigation with keyboard shortcuts (J = down, K = up, N = next column, and P = previous column"

I found out that if you are on viewing a board or list with issues, and are working as navigators -> scrolling up and down

 

If you look at a particular issue on quick view, the and are working as you need -> moving to previous and next issues. 

 

 

The full list of the keyboard shortcuts can be seen here: 

  • Click Help -> Keyboard shortcuts

 I hope this will be useful for you!

Unfortunately, this is not helpful.

 

Here's the use-case :

  1. I tap on the Issues Tab on the sidebar,
  2. open any of the lists (e.g. Reported by me)
  3. A list appears, and the k and j keys work, to scroll up and down through the list
  4. When I tap on o to open the issue, the issue opens, replacing the list.
  5. Shortcuts 'i', 'm' and 'a' work, but there is no shortcut to move through the next item from the list in (3) , nor can I easily close the Issue view and return to the List view of 3.

Am I missing something ?
