Description

Like the subject already implies, I'd suggest to differentiate available shared versions in version-format custom field drop-downs by prepending its project name like it is already done for the target version attribute drop-downs. This way we can (also) distinct the versions from eachother whenever there are duplicates.
Some screenshots of what I'm proposing:

This is how it is now:

This is how it could look like (so we can distict the both 1.0's)

The duplicate #10926 was marked as Candidate for the next minor version, can we mark this one as well to have it scheduled.

Simple patch could work. In source:/trunk/app/models/custom_field.rb@11275#L99 change:

-         obj.project.shared_versions.sort.collect {|u| [u.to_s, u.id.to_s]}
+         obj.project.shared_versions.sort.collect {|u| ["#{u.project.to_s} - #{u.to_s}", u.id.to_s]}

to prepend "{project name} - " before the "{version name}".
This makes it possible to differentiate shared versions in version format custom field drop-downs.

Note: the patch in note-7 does not prepend project names to custom field values in the custom field column on the issue list. This is the same behavior as currently implemented for the target version column. It might be better to change this also for (at least, shared) versions to distinct versions from other projects from current project versions.
Such should follow a fix for this issue first, so it will be better to open a new issue for that. Also #9851 needs to be taken into account since it is related in sense of how target-versions are displayed throughout the Redmine UI (now thinking of version#x links, roadmap, version views etc. also).

Follow-up on #9850-8 [note-8], extracted from (duplicate) issue #10926-5 [note-5]:

Actually, the project name is already prepended to shared versions displayed on the Roadmap view with or without using the Subprojects selection in the right side-bar. This also applies to both the project- and global Gantt views but specifically not for:
  • the project Calendar view (since shared versions aren't displayed there anyways);
  • the Version view (since versions are always tied to a single project anyway);
  • the project- and global Issue list view columns and finally, I think,
  • the Redmine version links.

Despite all the above: this issue is specifically about version-format custom field values and not the target versions.

Tested on Redmine 2.1.x / *.m.redmine.org.

Setting target version to 3.4.0 because I think that this fixed issue should appear on the changelog, in order to let everyone know about this long-awaited improvement.

I'm on 3.4.3.stable and I don't see where this is fixed. If I add a Multiselection Dropdown Version Version Custom Field, then the list shows all sorts of Versions without Project names.

Could it be that it was only fixed for Filters and Roadmap? If that's the case, then all these Tickets might have been closed in haste.

P.S.
I'm talking about custom version fields when creating new tickets or versions.

Indeed.
I think it is covered in #9851 and #15902.
