Update issues right from the list view in the issue navigator

[#1]

Hi All,

We’ve heard you when you said that it takes too long to make changes to multiple issues - given that you’ll have to open them one by one to make changes. With this release, we are addressing that problem. 

⚡️ Update statuses fast with inline edit

In list view, you can change the status of your issues, without opening them, real quick.

Before

After - 5x faster

🙌🏼 Update issues without opening them

Perform key issue operations, without opening issues, using the new dropdown at the end of the issue table. Working on multiple issues at the same time or deleting old issues during backlog cleanup will now be much easier.

👩🏻‍💻 Usability improvements

After we released list view in December 2020, customers reported the need for more space to work on issues. We’ve maximized the use of screen real estate to list more of your issues.

Additionally, we have rebuilt the list view from ground up for faster load times and speedy interactions ⚡️.

Before                                                                         After
Made list view more dense We’ve fixed the sparse vertical spacing in the issue list with spacing that is denser so that you can see more issues in the list.
Moved the footer to make more space for issues The sticky footer, which previously blocked at least three issues, made it painful for users working on small laptop screens. With the footer moved to the bottom of the list, you can now see more issues on the screen.
Made the column width dynamically adjustable With fixed column width, users were forced to use horizontal scrollbars previously. Now, the table adjusts the column width as the window is resized, so you don’t have to scroll to get to your columns.

FAQ

How do I stay updated on what’s coming next?

We’ve got a public Jira issue that you can watch to stay updated on the changes for Jira search.

When will my project get these new features?

New features are being progressively rolled out to all users in April 2021.

I want to inline edit all the fields in the table, are you working on that?

We have prioritised status, as it is one of the most commonly updated fields in an issue. In future, we will progressively add inline editing to other fields.

Will these features be available in both company and team managed projects?

Yes

How to enable Issue Navigator in Next-Gen / Team managed project?

You can enable the issue navigator via the features page under Next-gen project settings. After you have enabled the issue navigator, Issues will appear in the project sidebar on the left.

Where do I find these changes in a Classic / Company managed project?

Navigate to the issues page in the project sidebar to experience these new features. 

I've got suggestions or questions, how can I provide feedback?

Great, just leave a comment on this page.

much awaited enhancements. when can we see it in action ? 

[MJ Fadaee]

Yeay!! Can't wait to use these goodies!

[Scott.Brogan]

"New features are progressively rolled out to all users in April 2020."?

[S Fong]

Looking forward to see this new feature.

[Scott]

These seem like pretty nice quality of life improvements, glad to see it and am excited to give them a try.

[Matt Carter]

"New features are progressively rolled out to all users in April 2020." Should be April 2021.

[Emily Thraen]

When is the rollout with these highly anticipated improvements? 

[Cheri Hansen]

Thanks for the enhancements!

[Deleted user]

Does anyone know where to get a time machine to go back to April 2020?

[Mykenna Cepek]

All the examples shown are in a project board or issue search results.

Hopefully the Advanced Roadmaps can feel some of this love soon? Not being able to change a status value while editing a Plan is equally painful.

Appreciate the attention to things that will help us maintain an up-to-date project with less effort!

[Paulo Rebelo]

Thanks for all enhancements, pretty neat. 

Is there any plan to also make these changes in the advanced search?

[elandreth]

Can we get an option in the backlog to collapse all sprints?  The mobile app has this now, so I'm hoping it will be coming to the website soon.  

[Илья Угляница]

Thanks!

How about changing the assignee with inline edit?

[Deleted user]

excellent, now need the same for all drop down fields...

[Karen Serjeantson]

Is this for the data centre version as well or just Cloud?

[janlundberg]

Looks good, thanks!

[Vincent Nativo]

An improvement so thank you, but, only a single field can be updated inline?  Kind of underwhelming.....Are more fields planned to be supported?

[Alexander Senior]

When are you going to add the extremely basic usability feature of resizing/collapsing the right sidebar of the new issue view? This ticket has been open for nearly 3 years now.

[Celine Hau]

LONG overdue [applaud]; the reason why anyone reverted back to excel for so many years is because this never happened, till now!

[이희준]

my "Software Project( Next-gen)" has no "Issues" menu.... (I'm using cloud version)

how can I use the feature in this post?

[Andrej Freeze _ greenique]

This is great! I have been looking forward to this for years

[Bharat Dwarkani]

When the columns are more in the table, the Action column is at the end need to do a long horizontal scroll.

Either freeze the last action column (or) 
Include action column as the first column

[Pieter van tonder]

Awesome enhancements!  Can not wait for it to land.

[Nizamudeen Sherif]

Need More graphs on team statuses.

[Yerbol Nisanbayev]
