How can I change the default sort option of Priority for the Issue Navigator?

[Solitonman]

When I get into the Issue Navigator for a project I see the issues sort according to Priority by default.  We don't really use Priority in our projects, so it's annoying to have to select a new field (which I can't scroll to, btw) and then re-select the ordering, and THEN, if I'm lucky, I don't have to change the filter, otherwise the view defaults to sorting by Priority.

I can't find any documentation on how to configure this setting.  I want to be able to have the issues sort by Key, descending, when I open the Issue Navigator.  Anyone know if there's a way to make that happen?  Thanks!

I discovered that a script from the jirasuite plugin was changing the case to uppercase when it copied the Assignee across. I wrote my own script which leaves the id's in lowercase and it works fine now.

Hi Paul,

Have you tried to re-index JIRA and tested whether the problem persists even then?

Also, would you mind clarifying how exactly the value is being copied to your custom field? Are you using a third-party plugin?

Cheers,

Hi, re-indexing doesn't help.

I copy the value using a post function on a transition. "The field Developer ID will take the value from Assignee. Source and destination issue are the same.". I think it has something to do with the fact that the system uses active directory as it's user directory. If I click on the Developer ID field it shows my Active Direcroy ID i.e. PAUL2834, when I click away it shows my full name Paul Dillon. I am trying to select in a filter based on Developer ID = PAUL2834. Thanks
