how to add a new idea quickly with other fields

[Stavros_Rougas_EasyApps]

I can add only the title and then after quick enter is goes to the bottom of the list. Then when categorize, in our case by app, it move it immediately again and I have to find it to add insights... Not ideal.

I know can use 'Create' in the top menu. But it has such limited customization I wonder if there is a better way that I'm missing. Have to shows all fields, many that doesn't even work, or it will not include app field which is way at the bottom and users can miss it.

@Andreas Mouritsen @Chris Timms currently the calculation of the progress is done client side. That means that every time you open a project it goes and fetches all delivery tickets and their children to calculate it. Obviously that won't scale. We're moving all this to the backend in the next few weeks, which will make things much faster (and also we can cache results etc.).

In the meantime we've applied a limit so this doesn't impact the performance of the frontend: if you get to 1000 delivery tickets+their children we currently stop there. That means that the progress calculation may be inaccurate in some ideas. It currently doesn't exclude archived ideas.

All of this will be fixed by the work we're scoping out now. In the meantime I would suggest unlinking the delivery tickets for the ideas you don't care about that much (e.g. archived or done or just not that important), and avoiding linking epics with hundreds of tickets (we heard that's a thing!).

Quick update! It looks like we introduced a bug on that field a couple of days back actually, as we were rolling out changes to improve performance of the app (we have a team focusing on this at the moment). So you'll see this even if you don't hit the 1000 issue limit. It's going to be fixed soon.

The bug is fixed

@Tanguy Crusson 
We recently hit the 1000 sub-issue limit warning.  Is this a permanent addition or are there still plans to address this?

[Tanguy Crusson]

@Jack Arndt We've reimplemented all this, and we're about to roll this out in the next couple of weeks - it won't have this limit

Just a question on this @Tanguy Crusson 

If you set the Delivery Progress configuration to "Simple" - is the limit calculated at that level (epic) or does it still calculate the count right down to the sub task/feature level regardless of how you have configured the Delivery Progress bar?

[Tanguy Crusson]

@David Laine it does it at the epic level (basically if you have 2 epics, one in progress, one done, it's 50% in progress, regardless of the number of issues in each epic)

Hey @Andreas Mouritsen

+1 on this issue - not sure what is causing it, perhaps the cumulative total of linked delivery tickets seems to be the cause?

I am seeing the warning inconsistently on the same tickets. Would like to understand the impact this is having on visualising delivery progress.
