Can I have different screens w/i my project if the project shares a workflow with other projects?

Question

The project I am working with in JIRA must share the baseline common workflow across all projects for my company, however, am I also bound to those screens as well or is there a way to specify a new screen theme for my project specifically that will not impact the workflow and screens used by the other projects?

You need to give them a different workflow (you can only do that by having different issue types)

Thanks, but not sure I was clear.

User case:

Project X > uses X workflow > X screen for X workflow transition

Project B > uses X workflow > B screen for X workflow transition

Same workflow, same issue types, just want diff screens in the same step.  I do not see a way to place a second screen on a workflow transition without copying and supplying a diff named workflow in order to apply a diff screen.

You can logically entangle them, accidentally.  The most obvious way to do this is to have a workflow validator that checks a value is filled in a field.  If your new screen scheme does not include that field, the user can't enter it and hence can't progress through the workflow.

But that's probably not going to happen often.
