• May we know when a such feature will be implemented in future release ?

• Trying to understand how customfield rendering is done, I found a way to apply i18n translation.
  I proceed so :
  • Creating the CustomField as i18n keys : myCustomField
  • Adding the CustomField property value in a rebuild language_fr_FR.jar
    com/atlassian/jira/web/action/JiraWebActionSupport_fr.properties

    myCustomField=Mon Champ personnalisé

  • Adding the CustomField property value in a rebuild language_en_UK.jar
    com/atlassian/jira/web/action/JiraWebActionSupport_en.properties

    myCustomField=My Custom Field

  • ... and alos for any other required languages.
  • Modifying templates/plugins/jira/macros.vm as follow :
    • a new Macro

      ## I18n Headers required for CustomFields
      #macro(i18nCustomName $action $name)
          #set ($wordPos = $name.indexOf(" "))
          #if ($wordPos>0) 
          	#set($key=$name.substring(0,$wordPos)) 
          	$action.getText($key) $name.substring($wordPos,$name.length())
          #else
          	$action.getText($name)
          #end
      #end

    • Replacement of

      #if ($required)
          <span class="required" title="$action.getText("common.forms.requiredfields")"><sup>*</sup>
          $name:
          </span>
      #else
          $name:
      #end

      by

      #if ($required)
          <span class="required" title="$action.getText("common.forms.requiredfields")"><sup>*</sup>
          #i18nCustomName($action $name) :
          </span>
      #else
          #i18nCustomName($action $name) :
      #end

  • Modify includes/panels/issue/view_customfields.jsp as follow :
    Replacement of

    <tr id="rowFor<webwork:property value="./id" />">
        <td bgcolor="f0f0f0" width="20%" valign="top"><b><webwork:property value="name" />:</b></td>
        <td bgcolor="ffffff" width="80%">
            <webwork:property value="/customFieldHtml(../fieldLayoutItem,., /issueObject)" escape="false" />
        </td>
    </tr>

    by

    <tr id="rowFor<webwork:property value="./id" />">
        <td bgcolor="f0f0f0" width="20%" valign="top"><b><webwork:property value="text(./name)" />:</b></td>
        <td bgcolor="ffffff" width="80%">
            <webwork:property value="/customFieldHtml(../fieldLayoutItem,., /issueObject)" escape="false" />
        </td>
    </tr>

Please, let me know if I may implement this, waiting the future feature ?
What other problem may I encounter ? Probably Word and Excel rendering, I suppose ?
