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.

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…

[Structure+Testy] Make it possible to have a type of parent child relation inside an issue
Use Case 1:
As a tester I would like to use a unique test case and run it several times and after every run I would like to add my test data/environment to it. (E.g. Result and what format, browser, platform, DB that was used during test run...)Use Case 2:
As a Test Manager I would like to be able to create a dashboard report or filter based on specific data and the outcome of the result with that test data/environment.Current solution with testy today (https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.almworks.testy)
has some good features but you still lack the method…4 votesCollecting requirements – please see the comment.

Show more results to allow me to use the browsers scroll function.
The view port of the structure plugin is rather small. I can only see a max of 12 rows on my screen (1360x768). I need to export to excell to see more stories in my epic. It would be nice if more results are displayed on the screen. And to be able to use the browser's scroll bar to scroll, that's why it's there. Or did I miss a config option?

Would like a way to get Structure formula calculations into "normal" Jira custom fields
Structure formulas are extremely useful. Now our users would like ways of using them in other places within Jira. This may be tough in some ways because they are specific to the structure they are part of, but even something simple like the ability to choose an menu option or call some API to commit formulas into an underlying custom field could be quite useful.

Use the standard Atlassian User Interface objects
I would suggest you to resort exclusively to the AUI objects for your interface instead of your custom ones that clearly gives the impression that you are exiting the Jira world to step into another one.
I think you user would deserve a smoother user experience, with the same kind of buttons, icons, tables to which they are already used to. I'm especially talking about the transformation/filters features that should be improved in that direction to my mind. Thanks for you great achievement!4 votesplease see the comment

Structure of Structures - no data just an index with link to the relevant structure
I would like to create a Structure of Structures for structure navigation, whereby specific child elements allow you open the referenced structure. I have many structures that contain the same data, just displayed differently for different user groups.
The use case is in essence:
Parent - Folder (a name listing a group of similar or related structures)
Child - New Structure Link - simply a mechanism to either open or navigate to the referenced structure - includes description.Implementation:
Is it possible to add a new Structure element into the "Add" Dropdown called "New Structure Link". (i.e. New Issue, New…4 votesThank you!

user defined rank attribute
Create an attribute "Rank" to allow a user to manually order stories.
Use case: I want to prioritise stories for a given release. e.g. I have 20 stories and want to rank them 1-20.
Benefits:
- the ranking is more transparent to a larger audience than the ability to move stories on screen
- if another user changes the order I can see what was changed4 votes -
Use Monaco editor for editing formulas
The Formula column is a killer feature, but it can get tricky when the formula expression grows larger than the size of the editing area, and has a few levels of nested expressions.
Beyond just the ability to enlarge the editor, it would be fantastic to have a more advanced editor to assist here, and the obvious candidate is the https://microsoft.github.io/monaco-editor/
My suggestion for iterations for this would be:
- Just replacing the actual editor and make sure it's still working when editing and not (so no functional changes)
- Adding config and definitions needed for highlighting brackets and auto…4 votesThank you for request!

Support S-JQL in JIRA Cloud
S-JQL is supported in non-Cloud versions of Structure. It would be really helpful if it could be made available to the Cloud version as well.
4 votesThank you for your suggestion!
Unfortunately, Jira Cloud does not support custom JQL functions for now. So it’s not possible to migrate S-JQL as is.
We may try to find a workaround for some specific use-cases. So could you please describe what you want to do with S-JQL? -
Color quick transformation buttons to allow faster identification and categories
Currently, when you add a quick transformation the buttons are all white/clear. When you have a large number, it can be hard to find the transformation your looking for.
With colors, you could create visual categories (i.e. groupings, component filters, label filters, etc) and the user can navigate to them much faster.

Allow CSV Output of Information from Structure Board
It would be nice to have the ability to dump the structure board to a csv. Thinking that it would be something quick and dirty, with ' - ' noting structure, like this:
"Name", "Est Hours", "Progress"
"Mars Colony", "10h", "80%"
" - Terraform", "6h", "50%"
" - - Make Oxygen", "2h", "100%"
" - Create Colony", "4h", "0"Once this was CSV, it could be manipulated in other programs. Right now, I don't see a way to get the Hierarchy or estimate roll-up data out of the system for project managers to use.

Display a collated view of multiple structures
As a release manager, I want to see multiple structures represented in one view so I can easily collate the work multiple teams are doing. Our planning and management of structures is distributed, but I need to be able to see them all for enterprise planning purposes. Additionally, I want to be able to filter the one "master" view so I can see only those items related to specific criteria (e.g. release or project or component).

Possibility to disable/filter the Structure notifications in the project & user Activity Streams
Currently only the Actitvity Stream "gadget" has the option to configure filters.
The standard (non-gadget) Jira Activity Stream on the Project Summary page & on the User profile page does not have this option. Hence these Activity Streams are heavily 'polluted" with Syncronizer updates and are becoming useless..3 votes -
Allow admin to set default permission scheme for new structures
Structure defaults to no permissions to anyone. Admins should be able to set a default permission scheme for any new structure that is created from that point on.

Create column for Greenhopper Agile version
Greenhopper's Agile plugin allows for nested "versions" to define Agile Sprints within a top-level planned release. This is represented in JIRA as comma-separated items in the Fix Version/s column.
The Agile Planning Board is smart enough to show the last Version in that comma-separated list indicating the current sprint to which an issue is assigned. Structure is showing all the comma-separated versions which takes up a lot of column width space (particularly considering the Structure view does not wrap text in columns...).
Would you consider creating an Agile Version column that is essentially the last item in the Fix Version/s…

support project roles in JIRA
Structure currently only supports permission groups but not project roles. If a project is set to support project roles then there could be surprises if some users are part of the right role but do not belong to the groups that Structure has been permitted to.

Use lightboxes when managing structure properties
Currently when editing a structure (Operations->Configure), you are throw into a new page for editing. When you are finished and go back, the structure list reloads and moves you to the top and I cannot find my place anymore. This is a problem when you are viewing a list of over a thousand structures.
A popup lightbox would make things much better and allow me to keep my place in the list of structures. This could apply to sync settings, and all other management operations.
