Can I change the Status of an issue from within Greenhopper (eg Card view) via the Planning Board?

[Mark Howells]

I'd like to be able to progress an issue through it's workflow via the Greenhopper planning board. I see that I can update a number of fields (such as Assignee etc), but can I mark an issue as closed, say, from the Card View? Subject to the workflow permitting it of course.

Mark,

You can transition an issue from the card view. Highlight the card or issue you want to modify, press the period key (.) which brings up the Operations dialog and then either use the drop down menu or start typing to select the transition you want.

Look at the section on the 'Operations Dialog Box' in the GreenHopper documentation for the official word on this. That page has info on other keyboard shortcuts that are GH/Agile specific to JIRA that you can use.

Perfect. Thank you for a very complete answer.
