Custom Status Sorting

Jakob Agelin

I want to be able to sort new statuses so that they appear in a logical order in the status dropdown on a specific issue.

I've lurked some forums and figured out that the best/only way to do this should be in the screen below.

What's bugging me is that only some are sortable. On the printscreen above, I've marked the red ones as they could not be sorted, not matter how I tried, (up, down, more times than one, different browsers). However above a specific line (green box and upwards), it went just fine to sort statuses.

 

Is there some "rule" or "limit" to a status that it cannot be sorted that I'm not aware of?

(Note that there are probably 100 custom statuses in this list.)

Thanks!

To change the sorting in the dropdown list of statuses in the issue view, we need to add a property called opsbar-sequence on to the transition id (not the Step Name id).  See screenshot for reference. 

Then, add a sequence like 0, 10, 20, 30, etc, to all of the transitions (they need only to be edited once if they are reused under each Step Name). Publish, and the dropdown now shows the statuses in the order you defined. 

Note: the above sorting of statuses in the original ticket, does not have any affect on the dropdown of statuses (as they are triggered transitions). That sorting only affects when sorting on statuses in ascending/descending order, to my knowledge.
