Change "Automatgic Assignee"

How to change the value of the "Automatic" Assignee option ?

[Konstantin Mitov [Botron]]

Hi Antoine, 

You can specify a component on the create issue screen and configure the component to set an assignee different than the project lead.

Another thing you can do is a apply a post function to a workflow that changes the default assignee when issue state changes, or use something like script-runner.

Regards,

Konstantin

The problem with this solution is that it changes the person assigned even if the field is filled, I just want someone to be assigned if the field "Assignee" has the value "Unassigned" or "Automatic"
