  1. Queries based on structure, especially ones that make roll-up easier

    • All issues that are direct children of this issue
    • All issues that are children, grandshildren, etc. of this issue
    • Parent of this issue
    • Store the structure information in the same tables as other JIRA information, so it can be queried the same way.

  3. Support wildcard in structure() S-JQL function

    I would like a way to use a 'wildcard' in the structure() S-JQL function so that it searches all matching structures. Specifically, I am trying to solve the following problem: find all leaf nodes in any structure.

    Here's a potential use-case: I want to have a task backlog implemented in Structure. I also want to be able to organize my tasks in a hierarchical manner, also using Structure. In my task backlog, I only want to track the 'leaf' tasks which appear in my hierarchical structure.

    I know I can do this now using the structure() function, but I must…

  4. Automatically clear multi-selection after a move/paste operation is completed.

    The structure plug-in allows users to select multiple, dis-contiguous issues using the multi-select mode, whereby the user clicks on the little radio button next to every issue they want to select. The selection can then be operated on as a whole, for example, to reposition the issues in the structure.

    This feature works great, however, I find it annoying because the selection 'sticks', even after I've completed the operation I wanted to perform. Then, when I move onto select other issues, the previous ones, which are still selected, unintentionally come along for the ride.

    Let me provide a use-case. Assume…

  5. I suggest the structure gadget displays the full name of the structure in the dashboards

    Currently it truncates the names so it is difficult to tell which structure is displayed.

  6. Use different fonts for the levels in the hierarchy to make them more distinct

    It would be great for easier differentiation to make the font larger for higher level issues in the hierarchy. E.g.

    Level 0 - H1 Bold
    Level 1 - H2 ...
    Level 3 - H3
    etc

  7. Add ability to synchronize at the Project category level

    A structure is set up across multiple JIRA projects and when I add a new project, I have to redo the synchronizer. If I could select a Project Category instead of individual projects, then I would only need to add the new project to the project category.

  8. Limit Structure Depth for "Master" Structures

    With all the work being done to create sub-structures or copy portions of structures, the master or enterprise view typically does not need all the detailed subtasks, those will even make that view less usable. It would make that view more useful to have a default depth to open the tree, so if I have
    Issue-1 - Project
    Issue-11 - Milestone
    Issue-111 - task 1
    Issue-112 - Task 2
    Issue-2 - Project 2
    Issue-21 - Milestone
    etc.

    I can have structures for the projects with all the details, and the structure for multiple projects defaulting to open to a depth…

  9. Add a "quick search" feature in structure drop down menu

    Currently if you want to find a structure that isn't in your most recent or top favorite you have to go to the more... option in the structure menu to find it. This means navigating around to other pages to search for a structure. It would be much nicer if there were a filter / quick search at the top of the menu that lets you quickly find and view a structure.

  11. Search Filters Should Retain At A Structure Level

    If you have several structures that you are attempting to manage when you switch between them your search panel tries a filter / set of search criteria from the previous structure. Then you have to figure out that you want to apply filter=29121 or whatever when you go from structure A to structure B.

    Easy fix.

  12. Use JIRA Structure as navigation tree on linked Confluence content

    JIRA & Confluence are often used hand-in-hand... e.g. new ideas are formulated on CFL, leading to linked tasks in JIRA & followed by documentation etc.. on Confluence again..

    The need to reorder issues in JIRA, & use structure to navigate them, can be projected to linked confluence contents as well.

    The way i see it, structure widget could replace the space navigation panel.

    JIRA issues & corresponding Confluence pages could be linked via labeling (value == structure item ID)

    This is the idea in a nutshell, I'd be happy to discuss in more detail if helpful.

  13. Show some type of visual indicator when the progress rollup contains interpolated data

    I love the ability of the structure plug-in to roll-up numerical fields of children into their parents (thank you!). As I understand it, if some of the children do not have values, the roll-up algorithm estimates values for those children based on the values set in their peers (i.e the value of the unset children is the average value from all of their peers). Essentially, the structure plug-in is making estimates for the children even if users haven't entered any information.

    When that happens, it would be nice if the plug-in offers some kind of indicator on the rolled up…

  15. Ability to compare percentage realized versus percentage predicted (as a new calculated column) on the structure.

    Igor,

    I wonder if it is possible to create some kind of calculated column to show the percentage of the predicted structure for the current moment.

    Obviously if the issue had any reference date (ie due date) for comparison and the grand parent issue too. Just like we do on a project via MS Project.

    This is to compare how we are, in percentage terms (functionality already implemented) versus how we supposed to be (forecast until the present day).

    I leave here the challenge to improve (even more) this fantastic ADD-ON.

    Cheers!

  16. Enable you to specify a parent issue when doing "+ Add to Structure"

    Currently in the Issue Page you can only add the issue at the end of the structure.

    Parent issue input could be equal to the way we Link issues in JIRA.

  17. It would be great to be able to clear out the clipboard..

    RIght now there does not appear to be a away to remove issues from the clipboard (other than pasting). Seems like a user may try to do a cut / copy and decide they no longer want the issues. Seems like this could be a fairly simple fix (maybe a x button above the clipboard?).

  20. Expose broken dependencies via JIRA native 'Integrity Checker'

    ever seen this in the jira log?

    2013-07-30 11:44:07,812 Structure-Jobs-aea1f3 Queue-Thread#1 WARN wama 642x189704x1 156cgam 10.7.30.226 /rest/plugins/self-update/1.0/ [ext.sync.filter.FilterSynchronizer] Filter autosync #52 for structure 'Quoting structure' (#138) failed to run: filter 14610 does not exist or is not available to wama

    In my opinion, such notifications could be added to the 'Integrity Checker', section 'Check for invalid filter subscriptions'

    Fix is straightforward -> remove the dependency

    alternative: provide the same on the Structure administration page
