The new Jira Issue View is causing lots of troubles with the formatting. I usually write a description and paste a MySQL query in the description or comments as documentation. In the old issue view, I can do this just fine writing the description and the code block myself.
{code:sql}
SELECT *
FROM table1
INNER JOIN table2
ON table2.foreign_key = table1.id
{code}
But in the new View, the Edit writing box adds a hidden "\" to my {code} blocks so it doesn't work properly (as will probably happen with the block above), and it gratuitously adds a hyperlink in the query.
Selecting the whole query and then applying the Code option is worse because it puts a code block on every line instead of the whole query, and there is no option to select the language for the code block either (which I cannot write it down like before because is not letting me).
{{SELECT *}}
{{FROM table1}}
{{INNER JOIN table2}}
{{ ON table2.foreign_key = table.id}}
So please, how can I can access the OLD edit window from the NEW Issue View, the new edit is imposing lots of assumptions instead of letting me do what I want, hyperlinks in a query, bad formatting, adding unnecessary blank lines, etc. I know I can revert temporarily to the old View where I can get the old Edit button, but given that the old View will eventually phase out, I would like to know if I can reach the old Edit when that happens... Because I cannot work properly with the new View.
