Does the field order in the new issue view follow the field order on the screen settings?

[Alf Nilsson]

I have changed the order of the fields in the screen settings for a project, but the field orders when I open an issue does not match.

For example if I would set the order

• Assignee
• Reporter
• Labels

I still get

• Assignee
• Labels
• Reporter

Is there an other way to set the field order?

Hey @Alf Nilsson

Actually, this is a bug from the new issue view and it is already being tracked over here:

Order of fields is not respected in the new issue view

Provide the ability to reorder the context fields in the new Jira issue view

Just to give you some context, the new issue view is still in a beta version, which means we're still working on its features and, for now, this is one of the missing functionalities. :(

Feel free to vote and watch the bug and feature request page so to receive updates from our dev about them!

Hope this helps you for now :)
