The Assignee field exists within the view that I have selected within the "Create ideas" section of my project settings, however that field does not appear on the create dialog screen.
No "Assignee" field on the create dialog:

@Gary Spross it looks like the information box under the form preview in your last image gives you your answer:
'The following fields won't be shown: Comments, Insights, Status, Assignee"
I don't know if there's any way around this, maybe someone from Atlassian can help
I don't know how I overlooked that. Thanks for pointing that out.
What doesn't make sense is, if you open the "Create" dialog from outside the JPD project, it shows basically all the fields, including the Assignee field. If you populate the Assignee field and create the idea, it works and the Assignee field is populated as desired. So if the idea creation can support an Assignee value being provided, why wouldn't it be a field that is available on the "Create" dialog within the JPD project? It's not like it isn't supported...
The fact that the "Create" screens are different has been brought up (https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-Product-Discovery-questions/Create-button-when-not-in-JDP-project/qaq-p/2463555?utm_source=atlcomm&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=&utm_content=post). As of August 2023, Atlassian indicated they are working to "clean this up", however without a public roadmap, there's no timeline for a rollout. Would be nice to get this corrected AND to be able to customize the fields on the Create screen in JPD projects, instead of using views.

Can you give a timeline for the following? Are these things even on the JPD roadmap?
Thanks,

Hi @Gary Spross ,
Thank you for sharing this feedback. I've reported it to engineering to review.
We're aware there is inconsistent behavior when creating an idea inside the JPD project vs. outside the project, and a template is applied.
Not sure when this will be corrected, but again - it's something we are aware of. We suggest continue following along with the Community where our team is sharing releases and updates frequently.
Apologies for any inconvenience!

Thanks for the response @Nick H! Looking forward to an improved idea creation experience in the future.
