Can we use "Change From" operator for custom field in Issue Navigator to filter records based on history of custom field

[JanaW]

I would like to find a changed from value on a custom field and can only find old posts asking to do the same thing. Read JIRA 5 and it says only with JIRA fields can this be done. Is this still true or is there a way now in JIRA Navigator that allow us to search on changed history for a custom field?

Using IRA Server v6.4.5

Your workflow needs to set the resolution as you go into "closed" and blank it as you come out to a non-closed status.  You can do that with workflow post-functions, or for the "set", you can also put a screen on the transition, with the resolution field on it.

If you've got "broken" issues (closed with no resolution yet), you can bulk-edit to re-open them after making the workflow changes above, or you could add a transition from closed to closed that sets it, or you could temporarily put resolution on the "edit" screen, bulk edit them, and remove the field (you must not leave it on the edit screen, you'll break more issues)
