Tables magically sprouting new columns?

Wider Campos

The new issue view tables are getting new columns out of nowhere.

Maybe this is happening because some status transitions open a modal with the description field in it, and this field does not use the new issue view markdown. A similar issue happened before with bullet lists and bold colored text (but that's fixed now).

I've seen this happen to tables with varied number of columns. In the attached image, both tables had only two columns when they were in the PLANNING status. Now that they are in the TEST status, they have an extra empty column.

Hello Wider,

Thank you for reaching out to Atlassian Community!

Reading the details you provided, I’m afraid your site is being affected by a bug where the newlines are not processed correctly and am extra heading row is added. This happens if the table is created on the old view and then it will show the extra column if viewing on the new view.

The first bug mentions about a table with a single column, but it also happens if the table has more than one column.

Please, click on “This affects my team” and also watch to receive updates about the bug.

Regards,
Angélica

Hello Angélica,

I'm not sure the issues you mentioned are the same ones that are happening to me. The tables in the picture were created in the new issue view. We didn't notice exactly at what point they started having the extra column, but they were not created in the old issue view.

Thanks,
Wider

Thank you for the information, Wider.

Would you mind sharing a full screenshot for us to check where how is it showing and which view? Please, just hide the sensitive information and post here if possible.

I'm asking because your screenshot shows a grey background and I tested here and couldn't replicate.

Would it be possible to create a test ticket and add a table on the description and on a comment to check if the same issue will happen?

Hello Angélica,

Oh, the grey background is just because the mouse cursor was hovering the description when I took the screenshot, but here's a full page screenshot:

The same issue doesn't happen with tables in comments as far as I know. You asked me to create a "test ticket", is there a way to create a test (dummy/sandbox) issue to test these things?
