In Structure you can select items with the dot on the far left. Can I make a transform that acts specifically on those items that are selected?
Is there a S-JQL keyword that operates on the selected items within a structure?
What I have is a structure of several epics and their children. If I want to focus on only one epic and its children I use the "Pin" icon in the upper right.
But what if I want to focus on only 2 or more? You can't "Pin" multiple items sadly (would really like this feature). So I have a S-JQL filter/transform "dependentsOrSelf of (PROJ-123, PROJ-456)". This works, but if I want a different selection I have to edit this transform every time. Hoping for a "dependentsOrSelf of [selected]" or something like that.
Hello @mike
A transformation is applied to everything that is displayed in the structure when a transformation is enabled. it doesn't matter if it's based on a JQL query or on an S-JQL query.
If your goal is to only see certain issues and their sub-issues, you can do it with the S-JQL based filter that you mentioned. But it will indeed require adjusting the filter and changing its issuekeys.
Alternatively, you can try using the selection panel filter(it appears above items once you select anything by clicking the dot on the left) - select the items you want to see and then click Filter in the yellow panel at the top, which will remove everything from the structure except for the selected items. There is no option to also show sub-items of selected items so if you want to see both Epics and their children, you would need to select both as well. For convenience, you can use a keyboard shortcut here that allows selecting both the parent issue and all its children in one action. You can find it by clicking Info | Keyboard shortcuts in the bottom-right corner of the structure and checking the 'Selecting Items' section there.
The selection and the filtering will disappear as soon as you close the selection panel by clicking x on its right side.
I hope this helps. If you need further assistance here or have other questions about Structure - please reach out to us directly at our support portal and we'll get back to you shortly.
