[Migrated from https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/11667/master-detail-navigation-in-planning-task-boards ]

In the planning and task board, I can bring up a detail view of an issue. (For example, via the "Edit in JIRA" action or the link with tooltip "View this issue in JIRA".)

There used to be an easy, single-click, obvious mechanism to exit the detail view, and return back to the prior context – via a close button in an easy-to-find corner. No thinking was required.

In 4.4.1, that obvious, single-click mechanism for exiting the detail view seems to have been lost.

Workarounds:

• Use the browser back button to step back until finding the planning or task board.
• Find the "Agile" tab in the middle top, click it. This sends you back to the same board but the first page. Navigate back to the original page.
• Find "More Actions" button in the vast middle, click it, look for "Planning Board" or "Task Board, think about which one we were at before, click it.

Am I missing something? Is there a setting to open the detail view in the old dialog-like manner?

(By the way, I realize JIRA and GreenHopper began as separate products. However, it seems like integration should improve over time.)
