      One thing that has bothered me is that long fields values force the columns to be wider. This is incredibly annoying. The columns should be resizable.

      To show that this can be done I have written a GM script.

      You will need GreaseMonkey and Firefox to use it.

            [JRASERVER-14428] Resizable columns

            Can you please consider it ?

            This change would be EXTREMELY USEFUL for our team. It's very difficult to view the information we need to see easily without excessive scrolling. This is one of the reasons I like to do work in Excel vs. JIRA - I can control the formats there and it's easier to read through 250 issues.

            The reason I haven't updated the GM script is four fold:
            1) The new layout has feature overlap.
            2) The code has to be rewritten for the new layout. Since the code is a mess (my own fault) it will take time to rewrite. I don't have a lot of free time to spend on it, much less than I use to.

            I'll see if I can fit it in at work.

            Please consider including this very soon, since the GM script seems not to be working any more with the latest release of JIRA and it is really annoying to have the columns not adjustable.

            Thanks.

            We will ceratinly consider it as it is a useful addition.

            However, I cannot provide a date for when this will be done as it is not currently scheduled.

            Choosing which feature we will implement next is our greatest challenge as we need to choose them from a very large pool of useful changes. We try to select features that we believe will benefit the most customers to a greatest degree and ensure that we can implement them at an acceptable quality.

            Cheers,
            Anton

            This problem also bothers me.
            Will Atlassia consider that improve it to a grid controller which be able to resize width and drag&pull columns in future versions?

            Thanks for finding that. I've fixed the false positive on tables without column headers. I've updated the script, the download link above is good.

            All rows but the column header row have the class attribute set, so I've added to the xpath a check to make sure the class attribute is missing. It works but might get broken by a future change (which would cause the script to not recognize the table at all, will burn that bridge when we come to it, false negative is better then a false positive).

            I first came across it at JRA-2509.

            Could you show me an example (a url pointing to a page that exhibits it)? I'll see what I can do.

            It is cool, but it does break the sub-task view. I am guessing it has something to do with class name.....
