<ul></ul><p>I make a first gui wire freame how it could look like.</p>
<p>In the upper table you see the standard redmine worfflow transistion matrix. Just below the advanced issue field configuration table can be dropped down, where field property (visible, read only, mandatory) can be set dependent on role and status. For this case you wanna set field property for all status the same value, weh could insert an button to help with this, copy from the first cell in first column</p>
<p>Notice that there is also a special role "author", this way rights and visbility of fields can be configured for the issue author whatever role he has. This way functionality from <a class="issue tracker-3 status-5 priority-4 priority-default closed" title="Patch: Patch for improved issue edit permissions (Closed)" href="https://www.redmine.org/issues/7444">#7444</a> is covered by configuration.</p>
<p>Also notice that the table contains all fields (means standard redmine fields - subject and description too - and of course all user defined fields of the choosen tracker).</p>
<p>The logic for the visible chechbox (field is visible) and radio button "read only" (not writable) and mandatory (must be set by role in given status) is as explained in issue description - see above.</p>

<ul></ul><p>I did an update on the demo and fixed a bug, now there a 3 radio buttons.</p>
<p>All options for the field get active for the user if he has selected role and the status has the value of the column you do set the following field options.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>visible</strong> - this has to be checked in any case one of the following radio options can work. If its not checked the user can't see the field at the issue form.</li>
<li><strong>read only</strong> - if this is checked user in selected role can only see the field (of course visible has to be checked also) but can't change value.</li>
<li><strong>read,write</strong> - if this is checked user can see and edit the field</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><strong>mandatory</strong> - the user has to set a value, if its not already set. If its set he can't just leave it or change it, i he wants.</li>
</ul>
<p>Furthermore i added a drop down for every field, where one can set/change the order of the fields. At the moment there are some field in a on column layout at the top of the form and other are spread in a two column layout at the bottom. Not sure how to handle these assigment, but at least order in the two column layout could be configurable with this new control. Number in the drop-down equates the position top-down in the layout.</p>

<p>I thought aboot a mightyful approach to make the issue form layout completly configurable and i found it!</p>
<p>Being able to set issue form layout, would need a to configure table cell for every field.</p>

<p>The algo to make a table layout of this is pretty simple. It has to search for all list entries with same row number and make a table with number of columns used in this rows. In the redmines standard issue form case (see table above) first 3 rows have one column layout, row 4-8 have 2 column layout and row 9 has one column again).</p>

<ul></ul><p>I am switching from Trac to Redmine. I would very much appreciate it if the issue described here will be included in a next version.<br />I see it as a major drawback that I cannot prevent users to assign tasks to other users (even in the same project).

<ul></ul><p>Hi,</p>
<p>I wonder about issue's fields permission solution. Is it hard to add such feature to redmine? Are You planing something like that? I am not talking about solutions like this [<a class="external" href="http://9thport.net/2011/03/20/redmine-hide-assigned-to-field-with-role-permissions-plugin/">http://9thport.net/2011/03/20/redmine-hide-assigned-to-field-with-role-permissions-plugin/</a>]. It is simple hide field but user still has access to this field. In this case user is able to write field using REST API (if it is enable) or just use similar url [redmine/issues/[number]?auth_token=...&issue[assigned_to_id]=[id]]. I am talking about real access controll to single field. Any news in this case?</p>

<ul></ul><p>Hi Everyone,</p>
<p>I have modified my <a href="http://9thport.net/2011/03/20/redmine-hide-assigned-to-field-with-role-permissions-plugin/" class="external">plugin</a> to have a specific validation be run when changing the Assignee field and be controlled by a permission value of a role. I hope that this is a good starting point for something that I can improve upon in the future (possibly from some suggestions of people).</p>
<p>If you have time to share some thoughts on the <a href="http://9thport.net/2011/03/20/redmine-hide-assigned-to-field-with-role-permissions-plugin/" class="external">plugin page</a>, please be kind as I am a Ruby noobie.</p>

<ul></ul><p>A very important use case is still not covered in the 2.1.0 implementation:<br />Reporter creates two defects, A and B<br />Software Lead assigns defect A to Engineer1 and defect B to Engineer2</p>
<p>With the current proposal (and in 2.1.0), there is still no way to allow Engineer1 to edit defect A, but prevent him from editing defect B. You can prevent status changes in 2.1.0, but you can't prevent editing in 2.1.0 (nor in this proposal).</p>
<p>The missing component is having three sets of field configurations, like there are for status changes:<br />1) all issues<br />2) authored issues<br />3) assigned issues</p>

<ul></ul><p>Hello,</p>
<p>first of all thanks alot for this patch, helps alot to cover our usecases!</p>
<p>I just applied workflow_hidden_field_v0.03.diff to Redmine 2.1.3. It seems that the field permissions are screwed up somehow. Here are the results of my first tests:</p>
<p>Setting field to "" displays the field as optional (okay)<br />Setting field to "Read-only" hides the field (not okay)<br />Setting field to "Hidden" displays the field optional (not okay)<br />Setting field to "Required" displays the field as mandatory (okay)</p>
<p>The patch itself applied without any problems but it might still be related to the version of redmine I´ve used. Did anyone get into this as well?</p>

<ul></ul><p>Is it possible to hide fields on the initial creation of an issue, but show them when editing an item?</p>
<p>I want it to be easier (read: less daunting) to create an issue in Redmine, by hiding fields that are only useful later on.

<ul></ul><p>yes, it is. Just show these fields as read only for the status new in the workflow.<br />but beware! Required Fields should be visible.

<ul></ul><p>Thank you Daniel, I gave these patches a try and did as you said last week, but I may have not done it correctly.

<ul></ul><p>Daniel,<br />Thanks for your help. I implemented the patch, and was able to hide Parent Task, Estimated Time and Target Version on initial creation.<br />However, I find that these fields cannot be seen by non-Administrators after issue creation. These fields need to be viewable by non-Administrators after their issue's creation.</p>
<p>Additionally, I am trying to hide a custom field on initial creation, this patch does not seem to be allowing me to do that. I have the fields set as Read-Only or Required, based on their status. Should this work?</p> Redmine - Feature #8050: Mightful workflow field enhancement: visible, read only and mandatory https://www.redmine.org/issues/8050?journal_id=917942019-05-16T03:46:13ZSky Stalker
