In a dashboard/structure I want to show parent-links by description name and not issues ID

[Brent Peters]

I have a dashboard structure. I enabled the "Parent-link" column which works fine to print out initiatives. In the structure is shows the Parent-link
"Foobar-13875 - Initiative Name FOO"

Is there a way to have this structure parent-link for the initiative just show
"Initiative Name FOO" ? 

Trying to do this to conserve table space on the screen.

Hi,

Please use the below code for the above requirement, 

def status= underlyingIssue.getStatus().getName()
def field = getFieldByName("*custom field name here*")

if(status.toString().equals("Open")){
 field.setRequired(true)
}
