How to initiate a refresh of Issue Type field on a create screen?

[Michael I.]

I have a custom screen, where a user can select a project, an issues type and several other values. The Project value can be automatically changed by javascript because it depends on some other values, but in this case the Issue Type field does not update it`s options.

How can i initiate a refresh?

Not sure whether this is the standard projects / issue types dropdowns, but in the standard one you can make it recalculate the issue types by firing the event yourself. Eg to change it and fire the handler:

AJS.$("#project").val("10090").trigger("change")

Yes, this is what is needed, thanks a lot!

hi,

I'm trying to hit a function of 'Description' field, if there's a change in issue type (on create screen) then that function needs to be hit.  How can I achieve it using above provided  code?

Perfect, that works well.

Is there a similar way to refresh this fields within an issue collector?! I actually have the same problem, but in an issue collector. Even a full restart of the jira instance doesn't help...
