How do I stop JIRA from messing up my workflow diagram?

Adam Grace March 12, 2012

Hi all, I'm starting to lose my patience with JIRA's auto-formatting of my workflow diagram. I spent hours sort this workflow out. I select "Save layout" and then publish it. I then create a test ticket to test the workflow, I select the View Workflow link and find JIRA's destroyed the layout I spent ages doing.

Anyone else experience this? It happens EVERY time for me.. :(

Example images below. The top one is a snap shot I took after selecting Save Layout, and the bottom one is of the JIRA "amended" version.

Any advice is appreciated.

Cheers, Adam

Hi Adam,

this seems to be a bug.

Take a look at this JIRA issue:

Hi Adam, I'm having the same trouble with my diagrams. I haven't tested in the jira 5 but it seems it is still with the same problem from what I read in this Jira Issue. If you can add your vote to the issue, so this can be changed.

Hi Ramiro, I've actually already voted on that ticket. Hopefully they'll look into this soon.
