Yes, good thing to point that out. It can be a great help in some cases, but unfortunately that modal dialog blocks access to the comments on the bug, so composing your reply in it can be frustrating.
Yes I can compose my reply in another editor and paste it once it's final. However, IMO an issue tracker is something you use so often that working around these small issues comes at a high cost to me when it should not.
- cimmanom 8y agoYeah, I agree that the UI and modal abuse could use some work. I still prefer it over most other issue trackers, though, because it can be queried as a database.
- xjia 8y agohttps://confluence.atlassian.com/jirasoftwarecloud/advanced-searching-764478330.html https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirasoftwarecloud/advanced-... Is this the query language that you are mentioning? I don't have experience with it but from the documentation it looks very limited.
- cimmanom 8y agoIt supports any type of filtering you could need. It hides the complexity of what I assume behind the scenes are table joins. It's not for quantitative reporting but rather for retrieving manageable lists of relevant issues out of a data base of hundreds to hundreds of thousands. What sort of query would you want to run against an issue tracker that you don't see supported there?
