Hi,
I couldn't find any answers online or around Jira itself.
Is it possible to have some kind of same behavior as the previous issue view (newly activated the new issue view) to format markdown only when saving a comment or a description and have like a preview button? Like the preview button on the bottom left in the previous view.
As it would be more convenient when typing the opening and closing character chain like **, or ``, etc. and then using the `left arrow` to type what we want formatted.
Thank you for your help.
PS. New issue view looks super great!
