How to add preformatted text in rich text editor?

Elliott Balsley November 2, 2020

Since upgrading to a recent version of Jira, I am having trouble with text formatting.  When I comment on an issue, the editor uses rich text, so codes like {noformat} don't work.  How do I get this feature back?  This is what the editor looks like and none of these buttons allow for preformatted text.

Note:  I know about the code snippet (```) and code format (Cmd+Shift+M).  But I prefer {noformat} for multi-line log file snippets.

Well that sucks.  Thank you for the link.

Actually there's more to it than this.  Wiki markup still works when creating a new issue.  But it's not supported when you edit an existing issue.  Here is a screenshot of creating an issue, and another screenshot of the editor after it's created.creating ticket.pngediting ticket.png

Did you get a fix for that? It's annoying to be able to use Markup on creating but not in comments!
