How can I make a field appear?

Question

I am trying to make a field appear.

I find it quite frustrating, I have tried to understand the configuration of screens and fields but I don't get it.

Are there any tips or tutorial explaining this in a crystal clear way?

How can I check which screen I am viewing so I know where to add it?

I just want to add a field to the current view.

Go to project admin, look for the "issue type screen scheme" and descend into it - there are several layers but each one does show you the next (as per diagram - you'll be working your way up through the central green screens)

How to forms come in to the picture then? As it says my field is not present on the form.

If I go to backlog and view the issue there then the field Time tracking is visible. Or if I open the issue in the active sprint board.

But not if I open i the issue separately.

I have the Admin rights but not the knowledge :)
