How can I display empty custom fields

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

Type is there in the default layout, so it's not offered to you in the list, as you already have it.

However, it only shows you the issue icon, so it ends up as a narrow column (not a bad thing, as the navigator is usually short of space).  You need code to change it to the text (and that will be wide too)

There is no column for Issue Type on the spreadsheet ouput.

Do you have the column in the navigator?
