Can't set Original Estimate field since Issue View update

Foulques de M

Hi, 

Since the Issue View update, I can't set the Original Estimate field. 

The behavior is pretty simple : 

1. I open the issue in the new Issue View

2. I click 'Show more' to show the Original Estimate field

3. I type in my estimation as I always did '1d 2h' for example

4. My time show up in the field, formatted, for a couple of second

5. And then the field just reset showing 'Aucune' (which stands for 'none' in french), so it basically unsets itself. 

 

Am I the only one facing this issue ? What could it be related to ? 

We've always been using that same field for years, this issue really happened only in the new Issue View and we used to open the issues on the older view to update this field, but soon won't be able to access the older view anymore so I'm looking for a sustainable solution.

 

Thanks for your help, 

Regards,

Hi @Foulques de M

If Legacy Mode and the Jira New Issue View are enabled, it's not possible to set a time estimate on the Issue Detail View, the one used on boards, for now.

This is happening due to the following bug:
Can't set time estimate using issue-detail view if Time tracking is in Legacy mode and New Issue View is enabled

As workarounds for this bug, you can:
* Disable the New Issue View on your Personal Setting Labs section
* Disable "Jira legacy mode" on the Time Tracking settings page, by the "Edit global settings" button.

 

In the current Development plan a bugfix is scheduled to be implemented to this bug soon.

Hope this helps!
