In Plan mode, type an issue key, issue type, or part of the issue summary, and GreenHopper will instantly start searching for matches and filtering the displayed backlog, letter by letter as you type!
The sprint marker now shows the total number of issues (as well as story points) in your planned sprint. If some issues are hidden by your current Quick Filter, then two sets ot totals are shown on the sprint marker: one for all issues, the other for visible issues only.
All issue actions (e.g. Edit, Log Work, etc) are now available via a 'Cog' menu in both Plan mode and Work mode.
The Status field is now visible in the Detail View in both Plan mode and Work mode.
For completed sprints, a Sprint Retrospective Report is now available (via Report mode).
Now you can choose to set GreenHopper as your default homepage in JIRA — so you will go straight to GreenHopper whenever you log into JIRA or click the JIRA logo at the top left of the page.
To make it so, go to your user-name dropdown and select Use Agile By Default:
...note that if you are using Atlassian OnDemand, the dropdown will look like this:
This will result in exactly the same effect as if you had clicked the 'Agile' menu immediately after logging in (i.e. automatically take you to the most recently used board in GreenHopper)
A new 'Agile' panel is now shown on the JIRA View Issue page that contains Sprint information. If the Issue is in an active or completed Sprint the Sprint name is shown along with the end date of the Sprint. Clicking the Sprint will allow you to view the relevant Sprint details, for active sprints this will take you to the Work mode (with focus on the relevant issue), for a completed sprint, you will be taken to the Sprint Retrospective Report.
Note that this feature is only available if you have enabled "Scrum" in Labs.
When viewing an issue within JIRA, you can now jump to the relevant GreenHopper board(s) by selecting More Actions > Rapid Board or clicking the View on Rapid Board included in the Agile panel discussed above.
If your issue is present on more than one board, you will first be prompted to choose the board of interest:
The Control Chart will now give you data at each point on the graph. Hover over the graph at any point to display actual values of the moving average.
