Multi-Selecting Tasks in List View No Longer shows Copy to Clipboard

[Benjamin Livingston]

Previously when multi-selecting tasks in the List view of a project, The selection bar on the bottom of the screen would have a "Copy to Clipboard" option (pictured)


After a recent update the "Copy to Clipboard" option is no longer available, attached is a picture from the same project, same view, today; 


Is there a way to configure the selection bar so that it shows "Copy to Clipboard" again and/or an option to reset this to the original orientation?

@Benjamin Livingston,

You're not imagining it, Jira has been changing the List view selection bar, and Copy to Clipboard is no longer available there (at least not in my sites). To my knowledge, there isn't a space- or user-level setting to bring that action back on the native List view.

What you can still do natively:

• Open the same work items in Work item search (/issues/) using your project's JQL, select issues there, and check whether export or copy options appear in that context (these have also moved around recently, so the exact menu varies by rollout).
• Use Bulk change from List view for field updates when copy/paste isn't available.

If you need spreadsheet-style copy/paste again:

If you're open to solutions from the Atlassian Marketplace, JXL is built around a table view where you can select multiple cells or rows and copy/paste values (including from Excel). That covers the workflow the List view bar used to provide, independent of Atlassian's UI changes.

Disclosure: I work for the team that builds JXL.

Cheers, Paul
