      Issue Summary

      For team-managed projects, “status" field is shown in the same line as the Summary Backlog.

      But in the company-managed project, we see “status” field on the second line & not against the summary.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Navigate to Board settings >> Card Layout
      2. Add field 'status' to card layout under Backlog.
      3. Navigate back to the backlog page & you would see status field in the second.

      Preferred Results

      Fields added to the card layout should make use of the available horizontal space of cards view in company-managed backlogs.

      Actual Results

      Fields added to the card layout are added to a new row and take up vertical space.

      Original description

      Board Settings>Card Layout>Backlog>Add Field Name

       

      When fields are added to the card layout, they drop down to a second line making each project line double in size. There is room for this info to be displayed on one line but there is no functionality to force certain fields to the first line. The backlog view becomes really bulky and harder to navigate when the lines double in size.

            This has been knocking around for years after a forum search! Seems like such a small change but would be a huge UX improvement to manage Backlog. Having Label appear underneath the title, creating a second line, is really frustrating. We should be able to customise what to appear in a single line. Any update, Atlassian...?

            Please add Backlog attribute customization (T-shirt size, start/due date, etc.) available on 1 line.

            I also need to add fields to the backlog view on one line. I want to see the status field on active sprints without taking up 2 lines per issue (row). I do not need to see the status in the backlog section (of the backlog view) since all of them will still be in To Do status.
