Filter a swimlane based on Priority and not number of days

[Joao Borges]

Hi there,

I am trying to create a filter in one of the swimlanes: Business

project = TECH AND component = "Business - New/Existing development" OR summary ~ business ORDER BY priority DESC    

But my Kanban board is showing older tickets on top, even though they are lowest priority.

How can i filter this swimlane, Business, to show highest priority ticket on top instead of  amount of days a ticket has been in the board.

thanks

The content and order of issues on a board is determined by the board filter, not the various sub-slicing/drill-down options you can do later.

Swimlanes (and quick filters) define sub-sets of the board issues, but inherit the sort order defined by the board.  They're part of the board and showing a sub-set of it, so it would be confusing to show a different order.

Imagine an annual calendar with loads of events noted, including bank holidays.  This board would show things in the order that they will occur.   If you then look at a swimlane that sorts by their name, how would that be useful (within the context of what the board is for)?

I understand, so i will have to adjust the board filter under general > general and filter correct ? thanks for explaining.

In general i have the following:

project = TECH AND issuetype not in (Epic) ORDER BY Rank ASC

and theres a Kanban board sub-filter

fixVersion in unreleasedVersions() OR fixVersion is EMPTY

So ill make some changes on these queries
