Base the columns values on an other (custom) picklistfield #23

Open edtro opened 4 years ago

edtro commented 4 years ago

At the moment the columns are solely based on the field System.State. In some cases it could be handy that you can use an other field.

It should be based on a text picklistfield (for safety reasons, do not use other system fields) like custom fields. The check on a state change should be skipped.

Note: Not all workitem types will have this (custom) field... so this has to be checked first.

What exactly is the status on this feature? I'm certain in reading some of the related issues that the ability to select columns based on BoardColumn would be of great value to those organization using boards more advanced than just State and have developers spread across multiple projects.

Hi @tgolla, I agree that this feature would have its value, that is why I have created this issue for it. Unfortunately I am not planning to implement this any time soon. Please keep in mind that this extension is created and maintained completely in my own free and spare time. Kr. Edward

All, See my comments within the issue #39 It is still a work in progress...

Keep you posted. Kr Edward

@tgolla: Do you mean that you want to use Identity fields, like assigned to? Within my first version to enable columns to be based on other fields than just the state, the field has to be a text field.
