Work log comment appears in comment section

Question

Hi,

in order to get our users to log their work I implemented a screen with solely the field "Log work" and added it to the relevant transitions. When an issue is moved to a new status, the screen will pop up and ask for time spent, also allowing for a comment.

If the comment is used, the comment gets displayed both in the comments section as well as in the work log section of the issue. But I don't want the work-comment in the comment section. I want the comment to work in the same way as the comment when I use regular time tracking feature (i.e. clicking the plus sign next to time tracking).

I noticed that in regular time tracking the comment field is labeled "Work Description" wheres in my screen it is labeled "Comment".

Any ideas?

Unfortunately, this is not an answer, I have the same request as Max and have the same issue. How do I stop "Comments" from a work log screen during a transition to be copied to the task comments?
