Same custom field on multiple projects
Hi to all,
it my first post and I have a rudimental knowledge of Gemini, so I hope my question is sensible.
[Note: I slightly re-edited the text of this post to correct some typos.]
I am trying to use a custom Field in Gemini (2.2.6). I created three projects, and for each one I created the same custom field. This means that the custom field has the same name and similar properties in each project, and it is different only on two (important) things: different ID and different (being a drop down box) database table-view to look at.
I have two questions about this:
1) (working as admin) if I click on "All projects issue reporting" on the top of the Home Page, I cannot visualize the custom field I created. If I click on the "customise" link below the issues list, I can add fields but among these there's only one called generically "custom field". If I choose it, It just won't diplay.
I can, though, visualize the Custom Field if I click on Home, then I choose one project, then click on "issues" (link just below the project title) (this also assumes of course I have added the custom field that, at project level, can be added with its proper name). At this point I also have on the left side the Issue Filter. If now I select "All projects" then the custom field is shown, though it only displays data for the currently selected project (the select box on the very top of the screen).
2) I believe the inability to see the Custom field data for all the projects at the same time it is due, right now, to the fact that if I create a Custom Field for each project, even if it shares the same name and most of the properties, it has a differend id.
Now it would be very handy, in certain occasions, to have a custom field that is present in all the projects, and its contents are shown when I select "All projects".
Has anybody managed to achieve this or what I am looking for it's a (potential) feature enhancement ?
Thanks a lot, hoping not to have confused you all.
Alex
