You can find your workflow transition buttons in the status dropdown. Just select the down arrow on a status and you should be able to see all available transitions.
Let me know if this helps, or if you're looking for something else.
We've just released early access to dark themes in Jira. Feel free to turn it on in your instance to try it out. For more information, see: Help us test Jira’s new dark theme
I completely dislike the the right side bar and without massive improvement I never will. In the new view I need to click through different sub menus to correctly administrate a ticket, like starting a tempo timer. That costs me a heavy amount of extra time. Why increasing administration time for a ticket is called a improvement in your eyes, I don't know. One click in old view are now 3-5 clicks in new view and when you need to make about 3 klicks of that kind, you need one or two extra minutes do administrate a singele ticket. That is not an improvement that is reducing, maybe even sabotaging, user productivity and experience!
In general the performance and working experience with Atlassian has been a downfall through the last years. Since introduction of the cloud only solution, working with Atlassian is no longer fun.
The old view is definitely many times better than the new view. New view is not at all user friendly and takes more time than the old view. Sad to see the old view go away. Old view is a very good option and instead of getting rid of this useful option you should have just left the old view accessible while you work on getting the New view better with more fast and helpful options.
Have seen many users not happy with the New view so if you guys are actively gathering feedback then getting rid of the Old view is NOT at all a good idea.
I am very disappointed because you are removing what I use every day and for every issue. I work 8 hours a day on it. I can't use the new editor. It's terrible. I don't understand why you should turn off the ability to choose. Why close something that is better than the new? Because you want to work on it? Please reconsider your decision
Like MANY others here, the new view is just horrible to use. New view really does NOT provide the desired and needed information for many, me included. And just to cut it as a whole is no way to do it. Now we can click more to search for the same information we then previously had in one overview. "Let's fix what is not broke"....
Same issues as most everyone here, plus if you're not an admin you're stuck with the mobile first default new view. I bet people who spend most time in JIRA aren't mobile users...
Can anyone recommend a good alternative to JIRA / Confluence please?
You have to scroll downjust to find the horizontal scrollbar of inner panes (no-format sections), and then scroll back up to see the text you were after...
We use old view for one reason - we can bulk link a significant number of issues together. With the new view this becomes onerous and will slow work down considerably.
Provide a solution to this and our reason for the old view disappears. I can live with the rest.
Sooo much screen real-estate is wasted on either side... we have wide screens - let us use it to display information, not just white pixels!!

Just to echo what others have stated, I also hate the look and feel of the "New view" but did think this day would come, unfortunately.
I find the old view much quicker and cleaner to use when creating issues/tickets (which I do a lot) and the formatting doesn't seems as forced as it does on the new view. When the new view was initially introduced it did feel like change for change sake, rather than actually improving things.
Maybe folk (Jira PO's)need to realise that one of the reasons it has maybe become so popular, is because it's been relatively clean and simple to use.
It is not very comfortable that when you have a large chunk of code (for example) inserted, there is no scrolling bar for it, so you have to scroll down the hole inserted section which may be relatively long.
In the old view there is only a small window with few line and you can scroll down the code if you want, but scrolling the main window will get you further down the page.
Hi, is it possible to let this announcement show in the banner at the top of all pages in Jira, for "all" users, with the link to this site, including for users of the new view?
