Overview

As soon as your JIRA Instance defines a complex configuration, the number of Custom Fields combined with the number of different Project Type will cause a very large View Field Configuration screen.

When you will access the View Field Configuration screen :

 

  • All System and Custom Fields are displayed, even if they are or not marked as Visible,

 

  • For each of this Fields, the screens where it is used will be listed,

 


Enhancement

The enhancement proposed by this plugin is :

  • to apply a grayed font on Fields which are not visible in the Field Configuration
     
  • to provide an Expand/Collapse feature for each Fields,
  • and also to allow to hide all unused fields

Sample

In the example (on the left side) with a JIRA Instance 5 Projects, 8 Workflows, 86 Custom Fields and 31 Screens, the gain in scrolling is important :

  • When all Fields are expanded, we have to scroll on 11 screens, 
  • When Field details are collapsed, we have to scroll on 7 screens, 
  • When Field details collapsed and only relevant Fields are displayed, we have to scroll on 5 screens, 

 

Imagine the gain with more complex JIRA Instances.

But before all, it will allow you to have a clear definition of Field Configuration.
