    More details

    Although this add-on isn't Data Center certified, it will work in Data Center environments.

    This plugin does just one thing, when you hover on an issue link, whether it is only an issue key or an issue summary, it shows you full issue description with all formatting like tables, links, source code etc.

    Within a work day, you browse from issue to issue by opening them in new tabs. After some time you can't even see the tab names, because there are so many tabs. This plugin will help you to reduce the number of tabs you need to open. Whenever you just want to see more information about an issue, just hover on issue key instead of opening it in a new tab, and its description will be displayed as an overlay.

    Can be very useful. however, sometimes it lags and doesn't display the description at all. Also, it may be clearer to display 'EMPTY' or other term if the Description is actually blank.

    Very useful but it would be great if admin can configure if user should see summary or description. in dashboards, seeing summary will be more helpful.

    Just installed in our test environment. Seems to work fine. Unfortunately it doesn't work in Dashboards. Maybe it could be more customizable? Thanks.

    This is a simple and splendid plug in that Starware is kindly keeping for free. Thank you! One small QoL question: Could you make it configurable to optionally have Summary displayed on the above the hover-over Description? This could be helpful when constructing Dashboard without the Summary column (since JIRA's UI tends to clog things up), but still be able to see it if it were to be added. Thank you!

    Tried 1.0.3 in JIRA 7.5.3 and it works in Activity Stream within dashboard only when links are in the visible screen. Otherwise preview is not displayed.

    Hi Team, An Error appears in console developer mode when navigating to link to comment, also it could be reproduced on JIRA BOARDS with the link to comment. Please fix it.
