Hi Guys.

(The same like attachments)

Add a web panel module and set location as location="atl.jira.view.issue.left.context" this will make the panel appear similar to the attachments panel .

Ah, thanks, I hadn't realised you could inject panels like that.

[Mizan]

for an example you can refer this which displays panel on the right all you need to do is display it on left

I would like to know what are the possible locations for web panels. Is there some list of all locations?

Jira doesn't really support you inserting panels into the main view. It does support tab-panels of course, you've already found those. I suspect you'll need to hack something in the core of Jira to do this, or work out a way to inject your display.

Two approaches I'd consider

1. Write your stuff as though it's an issue-tabpanel. Then make tweaks to the core to draw the result up into the main view

2. Create a plugin for a custom field instead - you can make these read-only and displayable even on edit. This is a little more limited, as it will always end up in the area set aside for custom-fields, but again, if you wanted to tweak the core a bit, you could relocate the field

If your editor supports rich text - then you can just give some default value in custom fileds (HTML) - this will show automaticaly in view screen - no need for new development - im not clear with your requirment so suggesting a simple approach
