Sub Tasks Summary display

Hi

After adding a sub-task it is displayed in the Summary Field (issue navigator) as:

NPC-406 / UT3.1 Login Screen.doc

So the summary uses the Issue Key of the parent in the Summary field. Is there anyway to use the parent summary rather than Issue Key, ie:

Common Module / OT3.1 Login Screen.doc

The issue key does not provide enough context (is NPC-406 is meaningless compared to Common Module)

Thanks!

Simon

Did you notice that it has a rollover tooltip? Does that help?

The only remotely related feature request I could find was related to showing it as a tooltip (resolved), but in the comments there was a follow-up request for showing the parent as a column in the issues list grid (denied without follow-up): https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRA-7569

I think if you were interested in a setting or option to show the full parent issue summary, the next step would be to log a feature request in the above project and see if there is any interest there.
