When going to "show details" for an epic - the color icon does not respond to left or right clicks to change color. Other help pages show three dots or a drop down arrow - but those are not in this version.

How do I change epic colors?

Hi @Rob Rough 

Once you're viewing an Epic's details - you should be able to click on the colour icon, and then select a different colour.

That seems totally logical and what I recall from other instances. But I cannot get the color icon to respond with either right or left clicks. Could there be a project setting that I have not toggled properly?

Hi @Rob Rough 

Where are you clicking on the icon from? A screenshot might be beneficial here.

I just tried it using this approach:

  • Go to a Board's backlog
  • From the Epic panel on the left-hand side, select an Epic
    • If the panel isn't there, press "E" to open it
  • Press the button View Details
  • Click on the colour icon when the Epic's details appear in the right-hand panel

I also opened the Epic to view its details as an issue view, and the left-click worked there also on the colour.
