Regular Expression Text Function for substring extraction
A regular express text function would be very useful to extract content from a Text field into a column.
For example, if a Description field has:
Name: Value
Name1: Value2I can write a regex formula to extract out the value for Name: into a Column.
3 votesWill add another function to extract a matching substring. A longer workaround is already available: please see the comment.

Yellow "x items selected" box shouldn't push list of tickets down when it appears
Hi! I am using version 4.6.5
When you select a ticket, the yellow "x items selected" box appears, and visually pushes the entire ticket list down so you visually "lose" the item you just clicked on.
To see the problem in action, scroll to the very bottom and select the circle for the very last ticket. Instantly, the ticket gets pushed downward and disappears, so you have to scroll down to see it again.
It's also a problem when I have some tickets selected, then do ctrl-A, ctrl-A to deselect all tickets. The yellow bar that was there goes away,…

Ability to hide the time line in the gantt chart view
It is a widely adopted practice to not share specific dates in long term planning and it would therefore be helpful if I could hide the dates/timeline in the gantt view.
The only option today is to zoom out but that is not practical as the feature-bars will become to small and the timeline is still visible but in years.
I want to be able to show how feature A is scheduled before Feature B and that it is dependent upon Feature C being completed without having to show when the features will be worked upon.
Simply hiding, or making…

Use a field (i.e. sequential index) to automatically create hierarchy into Structure when importing from CSV/Jira.
Hi, we usually load Jira items via CSV import, and it is very time consuming to arrange them with links or to manually indent them into the Structure.
It would be great to use a field like the Structure's sequential index.
For instance, using that field during import, to automatically arrange the hierarchy into the Structure (i.e., item 3.1.3 to be put automatically after 3.1.2 and underneath 3.1).Many thanks, and congrats for your works, it is very well done!

Ability to resize column widths on printable page
The column widths of the printable page are set by Structure and often ones with a lot of text (like Description or Comments) end up too wide. Would be great to be able to set widths before exporting

Option to change font style of Summary text for different levels of hierarchy
Formula column with Wikimarkup is great, but since you cannot use this on the Summary column (which must be included in the Structure as is) there isn't a way to clearly distinguish the different levels of your hierarchy. Would be great if you could opt to bold the Summary column for Level 0, for example.

Reverse hierarchy
For instance when looking on what a team (or singel dev) is working on. I would like to expand an issue and see what motivates it.
It is possible to do with normal link types but not with epic link and sub-ask-link
So what i want to do is to create a view from the perspective of a developer. follow parents and depends on deeper. Having the story as the first layer.
Story: Build a nice landing page
- Epic: make the onboarding and retention of new customers better (reverse epic link)
- Initiative: gett 1000 new customers (link)

When using the CONCAT function, I would like to use the special character "line break" in the text I'm composing.

Open issues in Jira search view
It would be helpful if you could open a folder, sub-folder or a grouping, within your structure, in the Jira search view pre-populated with the issues in folder. This would allow you to easily share specific issues in your structure with relevant engineers so that they don't have to find the issues themselves within your structure.
Examples:
Create a sub-folder and insert issues using JQL. Open all the issues in that sub folder, in a Jira search view. From the Jira search, you can easily share with team members.3 votesThank you for the suggestion. As I understand, you want to share issues from the structure somehow, right?
There is the “Sharing a Perspective” feature in Structure for Jira On-Premise. It allows you to focus a specific folder or select some issues and share this view with others in the form of a permanent link.
Would this feature solve your problem if we migrate it to Structure Cloud? You can read more about it in our wiki https://wiki.almworks.com/display/structure/Sharing+a+Perspective

Available resources
Limiting number of resources that can be allocated for a day to specified number.
Use case: I have two people working on a project and they can't do more that two cards at the same time.

Color settings for baseline bars
Now baseline bar can be only gray. If you print Gantt chart on paper it is not easy to see baseline bars.
Can you add color settings (maybe like for slices) for choosing color for baseline bars?3 votesHi Alexander! Thank you for the request, so am I getting you right that your idea is to be able to select the baseline color while exporting Gantt chart? Would making it more contrast by default help you?

More/Custom/RGB coded colours in appearance settings
There are only several colors in appearance setting for each slice. Please add setting of color with ring or with Color code to have unlimited quantity of colours for Gantt bars.
As example we want to color different assignees with different colors, and we have more then 6 assignees3 votes -
Have a structure folder be a Jira component
Would be great if this could work in 1 or both directions:
When creating a folder, I have the option of pulling a component from my component list (perhaps there could be an option to instantly pull in all existing issues in the component)
Ability to "nominate" a folder as a component (perhaps there could also be the option to add existing and newly added issues from the folder inside the structure to the Jira component)
3 votesThank you for the suggestion!
For now, folders are designed as our internal entities to structure a hierarchy. But you can use Grouper Automation by Component. https://wiki.almworks.com/display/strcloud/Field+Grouper
If Field Grouper doesn’t work for you, could you please share your use case? Why do you need to integrate folders and Jira components?

Make Gantt baseline date attributes and delays available as Structure fields for reporting
Baseline visualization is really great, it would be fantastic if we could have the dates and calculated delays of a (selectable) baseline available as structure columns to enable further reporting.
Makes sense?

Ability to Turn off Structure Updates Temporarily
We often use a structure in weekly meetings with product and engineering to review status. The structure captures works from across lots of projects and also references another structure for some content.
Sometimes during the meeting, if there are lots of updates occurring for items in the structure (or dependent structure), it can cause the structure to reload, which is painful when you are using the structure to present. It would be good to have a toggle to prevent it from updating to avoid this.

Set different views for folders
Different folders in Structure may have different needs for columns/views, so it would be great to be able to define a view to use for each folder.

Ability to save and "Perspectives" or combined set of Structure, View, Enabled Quickfilters that you can save and share
Users get overwhelmed with the number of options that they have to change the way they visualize the data in the structure.
Currently we can share a perspective which is similar functionality to what is being requested. However we cannot keep a library of perspectives in the system the same way we have the Views. This would help provide users with a library of options based on what they intend to do (i.e. risk management, project prioritization, reporting, etc.)

Show keyboard shortcuts more prominently
The keyboard shortcuts looks great, however discoverability could be better. Even technically minded individuals in the majority do not go searching for keyboard shortcuts.
Adoption of Structure may be more natural and frictionless if users were shown a permanent reference to keyboard shortcuts.
