Field Order

The Field Order page is used to rearrange the field layout on the issue detail screens (New/Edit/View). This order is used to display fields in columns of two on the details pages. Text fields and fields with a "Use Whole Row" setting, will be desplayed on their own line. An ordered list of fields is displayed on the left side of the screen, giving the current field ordering..

• Moving the various fields up and down, the list will change the order they are displayed on the issue detail screens.
• There are options for deleting sections and blank fields if they are no longer desired.

The right side of the screen displays options to manipulate the fields on the left and a legend which differentiates between default fields, custom fields, sections, blank fields, and a special marker, the custom field target slot.

• New sections can be created with the Add Section button. Sections can also be deleted from the list. If any of the four default sections (Info, Details, Attachments, and Project Management) are deleted, they can be recreated by pressing the Restore Default Sections button.
• Blank fields can be added with the Add Blank Field button. These are used for spacing.
• The Hide/Show Hidden Fields button will hide or show hidden fields in the list of fields on the left side of the page.
• The Reset Field Order button will return the field order to the default layout.
• The New Custom Field Target Slot is a special marker that can be moved up and down in the list like a regular field. When new custom fields are added to the system, they will be placed into the field order above this marker.
