How to keep ticket order while moving a ticket across columns

[tomicakorac]

In older Jira Server versions, when I move a ticket from one column to another in a Scrum Board (let's say from 'In progress' to 'Done'), the ticket's order was preserved compared to all other tickets in the board. I could only select the column to which I want to move the ticket, and not re-order the ticket in comparison to other tickets that already exist in the new board.

In the Nextgen project board, while moving a ticket across the columns, its order gets lost. Along with choosing the new column for the ticket, I am also forced to also choose the tickets order compared to the other tickets existing in this new column.

Can I (and if yes, how) revert my board behaviour as it was before?

Put them into groups and use the groups in the right projects.  I just scribbled much the same on https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/11990804

The problem is that it is not groups that I want to limit to certain projects, it's users. What I mean is that I have three groups (admins, pm's, devs). I only want certain users in the dev group to be able to view the projects that have been assigned to them. I don't want the whole dev group to be able to see the that dev's project(s).
