Show "Release Notes" column in Bug listing

2010-06-29T18:15:58Z

The List Cases page allows me to configure which columns are displayed. Alas, the "Release Notes" property isn't one of the available options.

I would like to be able to show a "Release Notes" column in the Bug listing. The column should allow for quick editing of release notes.

Similarly, it would be nice if I could filter based on the presence of release notes (e.g. I'd like to find a list of resolved bugs that do not yet have release notes).

Fogbugz makes it easy to view and edit release notes by selecting the Release Notes Report in the Reports drop down menu. There you can choose project, milestone and get all closed cases. Fogbugz then returns a list of cases where you can edit release notes and also see which cases do not have release notes. You can even click on the XML or HTML links to compile the list of the release notes as a single file.

I have opened a case to consider this feature for a future release. Please up-vote this question (not this answer) to show your support for adding this feature.

In the meantime, a plugin could be written to add a column to the grid view using the IPluginGridColumn interface.

This feature would also be very helpful for us too.

We use hierarchy extensively, and features that do not use it are almost useless.

Filtering bugs without a release note entry is ... easy: Add a search filter condition:

 -ReleaseNotes:"*"

I second this feature request. The guy who collects and edits the release notes has been three or four times in my room, because he needs it: Some developers write really bad cryptic release notes. My colleague then wants to open the case, read the events and adjust the release notes entry. Therefore he needs a filtered list with a column "release notes".
