have a preview pane for viewing issue details.
When I am looking through the structure I'd like to have an optional small preview pane at the bottom of my screen that will show me additional information about the issue. I would use this preview pane for inspecting the details of issues in my search results before adding them to my structure. Without this feature I find myself opening multiple browser windows and displaying them side-by-side.
Thanks everyone for supporting this request. Structure 2.9 is just released and shows issue details on the Structure Board!

Specifically, I would be interested in being able to view the details of an issue when I select them in the structure as well in a similar manner to the JIRA Agile Plan board.

I think looking at how JIRA Agile configures the issue detail view would be nice: https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/AGILE/Configuring+the+Issue+Detail+View

Jamie, it's among our top features in the list now, especially since JIRA 6 has previews in the Issue Navigator - we'll probably try to reuse those. But no ETA so far, sorry.

Any movement on this? It's very much required... either a preview of the issue as in GH, or at least the ability to open it in a dialog over the top. When you click through to the issue there is a full page refresh and you can't navigate through the structure from the issue, as you can where you are in a filter context say.

A preview of issue with issue description and maybe some other fields would definitely help us a lot as well.
An implementation like google preview woul d be the top ;-) -
@Angell Great! We'll work on the preview pane anyway, but it's some versions in the future.

Yes, I've upgraded and see it and that works for us. Awesome turnaround thanks!

Angell, we've just released version 1.4, which has a much nicer Images column. See the docs: http://wiki.almworks.com/x/FYKF

Igor, i love your idea. Maybe not immediately on mouse over but a .5 second delay or so. We currently are trying to use the Images column, but with not as much success since they are often cutoff to the point where you cannot understand the GUI defect.

Angell - thanks! Right now there's "Images" column with image thumbnails, but it's hardly usable because it only shows, er, a part of the image (but you can click it to see the full image). What we can do really quickly - perhaps in the upcoming version is to add some functionality around Images column - let you see the whole thumbnail if you hover mouse over, or show the full screenshot without leaving structure page.
That is besides the issue details preview, which is going to be available sometime later.

Yes i NEED this feature. Currently we have a list of many GUI type defect tickets and all i really need to do is to quickly glance at a screenshot for 5 seconds to understand the nature of the defect (which is clearly described in the summary). If the preview popup/pane were to include a quick screenshot view, then I would even be able to fix some of defects without even opening the ticket! This would greatly increase efficiency.

Great idea, thanks! Can you tell what issue details you do NOT want to see in the preview window?
Also: how many custom fields do you typically have in an issue? Do you use tabs to segment the fields?
