JIRA 4.1 Release Notes


2010 年 4 月 7 日

The Atlassian JIRA team is delighted to present a brand new version of one of the world's favourite issue-trackers.

This release makes your JIRA experience easier and more convenient than ever. The issue UI has been redesigned for a simpler, friendlier experience, and keyboard shortcuts have been streamlined. Issues can now be actioned directly from your dashboard via a handy dropdown in the gadgets. Each issue's attachments are now displayed in an image gallery, and can all be downloaded to a single ZIP file with just one click.

The installation process has been improved by the inclusion of industry standard database drivers and a GUI database configuration tool, and JIRA Standalone is now being shipped with Tomcat 6.0.20.

JIRA 4.1 also addresses some other enhancements and fixes, notably a fix to the 'Malformed security token' error appearing in gadgets on the JIRA 4.0 dashboard.

Improved Global Keyboard Shortcuts

JIRA now has improved global shortcuts to provide quick navigation around JIRA. You can now go directly to the dashboard from anywhere else in JIRA, simply by typing 'g' then 'd'. Type 'g' then 'p' to jump to the browse project page, or type 'c' to start creating an issue. You can find what other keyboard shortcuts are available by typing '?', to bring up the Keyboard Shortcuts dialog box.
