2024-02-15 | Vladimir Skipor | en | Is it possible to make it work with cross-project board like : `https://<company>.atlassian.net/jira/people/712320:4031e64e-e155-4537-95c8-a0f24a3f8598/boards/192/`? It will be really helpful. | |
2021-10-29 | Marcus Widerberg | Was great. But is broken as of now, does not remove any header and resizes nothing, AFAICS. So needs to be updated, to become that great plugin it was. | ||
2021-08-23 | Steve Kiehl | This has been great, but as of Chrome 92.0.4515, this breaks vertical scroll. | ||
2020-11-10 | Brian Janiszewski | Works great, sadly I'm not allowed to use Chrome at work.... Can't believe Atlassian doesn't already have a fix for this. | ||
2020-02-10 | Andrew Cawood | Made viewing boards with many columns MUCH better. One bug: The Close Standup Mode button only works if you don't click on anything else before clicking the button. If you click anywhere in the view or on a card and then close it, clicking the button does nothing. | ||
2019-08-07 | Alis Blomberg | I like the idea on this one. It doesn't work that well with the latest JIRA cloud UI if you refresh the backlog view to make it update the first time you turn it on from there on an open tab, though. On the backlog view: Enable just turns it on. Resize tweaks the width of the right sidebar, though there are limits to max size. Scrum view hides the sidebar and all of the filters, people, etc. at the top. On the board view: Enable just turns it on. Resize tweaks the individual column widths, not just the right sidebar, so that's a bust for me. Scrum view hides the sidebar and all of the filters, people, etc. at the top. | ||
