Disappearing "+" on Epics on Timeline View

I'm not sure if this is a bug, but an end user reported (and I confirmed) that once a new item is created using the + sign on an Epic in the Timeline View and creates a Story/Task/Bug, the "+" disappears from the Epic. This means clicking away from the timeline view and then back to hover over the Epic before the "+" returns.

Problem statement: This results in less efficiency when adding multiple items under and Epic.

Hello, Good day. I am able to reproduce similar issue on my instance as well. After creating a child issue, the '+' is available only after a refresh. Will report this issue to concern team. Thanks for the post

Hello Christopher, I checked this issue further on my side. When you create a child issue from Timeline view using the '+', then "create child issue option" will be still open for you to create multiple issues.

If you refer to the above screenshot I created the child issue SJ2-6 and there is no =+' sign next to the Epic, but we still have the option to create the child issue. This way we can create multiple child issues

Thanks so much. We didn't even notice this behavior.
