      Atlassian Update – 10 January 2018

      Hi everyone,

      We’ll be shipping a new set of priority icons with Jira 8.0 soon.

      You can compare the new icons with the old ones in the attached image:

      We believe this solution should solve an important part of the problem. I'm resolving this issue since we are not planning to have priority field display the actual value rather than a colored arrow.

      It would be great to hear if what we've done solves the problem for you.

      To read about other capabilities we’ve added in Jira Software 8.0, or to download a beta version, have a look at Jira 8.0 Beta Release Notes.

    • We collect Jira feedback from various sources, and we evaluate what we've collected when planning our product roadmap. To understand how this piece of feedback will be reviewed, see our Implementation of New Features Policy.

      Currently, the Priority field shows an arrow pointing up in a different color, depending on the priority - Red = Critical, Orange = high, yellow is Medium, etc.

       

      It is not easy to see the different colors, even for those of us NOT color-blind.  And printing to a non-color printer will not show the priority differences.  

       

      Allow me (the admin) or me (the end user) to configure how I want this field to display - either to display the symbol (as it does now) or the actual field value (Critical, High, etc) as it displays when you export to CSV (or other) format.
