      Updated summary - was "Add "Disable Detail View" option to Agile Board User Preferences"

      —

      As a developer, I would like to NOT have the detail view pop-up when selecting a card on an Agile board so that I don't loose screen real-estate by showing details I don't want to see, because I typically open the issue in a new browser tab to see all of the details and/or make edits anyway.

      As a SCRUM Master, I would like the detail view to display so that I don't have to continuously open new tabs to view each issue when discussing issues as a team in the daily standup.

      As can be seen, the role of the user plays a significant part in how this feature is typically used. The proposed "solution" is to make the display of the detail a USER PREFERENCE that can be enabled or disabled per board (either Kanban or Scrum)

      Similar to GHS-10182 - however, that request wanted to make it an ADMIN function to disable the detail view per board, which does not fit with a sub-set of users.

      Workaround

      Added on 09 Jun 2020 with JIRA 7.13.13:

      To hide Issue Detail View, you can add it to your Administration > System > Announcement banner (under User Interface): 

       
<style> 
div#ghx-detail-view { 
     display: none;
}
</style>

      Disclaimer: The workaround may cause unexpected JIRA behavior. In that case, simply remove it from the Announcement Banner will revert the changes.

            Not completely sure if this might help, I wrote a user-script to open an issue in a new tab with alt-click, for Jira next-gen - https://openuserjs.org/scripts/vshih/Jira_next-gen_-_Alt%2Bclick_to_open_issues_in_new_tab

            STUPID, STUPID, STUPID popups.  Why did you take away the ability to open the issue in full screen when I click on it.

            So the new view went from a skinny modal view to a full screen view but only widens the form's content by an inch at the most. I have as much whitespace as I do content. Hopefully I can find the themes and at least darken border. All of this whitespaces is burning my eyes out.

            Hi, thank you for the workaround!

            I tested it and it works. However, I can not activate it permantly since we have multiple teams in the company working with our JIRA. They may want to configure the "legacy" behaviour by individual board.

            Hope to see a board setting in the future! Kind regards,

            Holger

            Jira developers fundamentally don't understand how modals should work nor apparently even the basics of UI design. 

            LET US CLICK THROUGH TO THE DETAIL VIEW LIKE WE ARE ADULTS.

            YES!!Unable to render embedded object: File (  +Please+ add this requested feature) not found.!!

            The stupid "detail view" is quite possibly my biggest pet peeve with Jira.  Whenever we're in a team meeting, sharing the screen, there's never enough "screen real estate" to show enough info in the detail view for all the various cards we need to discuss (without a whole lot of scrolling up/down and can't see all info on the screen at once) and/or we don't have all the desired fields/info on the screen ... and the more one tries to fix one of those problems, the more it increases the other problem!  So, in effect, we always just have to "click through" that horrible detail screen to open the Jira card in full-screen mode.  As we discuss dozens of cards per day, this means a lot of unnecessary wasted time!!Unable to render embedded object: File (  It's absolutely crazy the detail screen can't +already+ be completely disabled in a Kanban board's settings for all users) not found.!Unable to render embedded object: File (  +Please+ add this functionality ASAP) not found.!!

            For cloud users at least, there is now a "new issue view" available by clicking your profile avatar in the bottom left corner, then personal settings, then enable "New Issue View" under the Jira labs section.

            This change isn't exactly what is being asked for here in this issue, but it does solve my personal complaint (screen real estate being taken up by the issue view).

            @Trina S: Most web browsers have a setting to specify if Ctrl+Click opens in a background tab or a foreground one. Ctrl+Shift+Click usually flips the behaviour.
