You can view an issue on the Planning Board and Task Board in three different ways, called 'Views':
For easier management of pending issues (that is, those which have not been assigned to a child version or component), you can also apply 'visual' issue filters to these views, to exclude child versions or components from your view. These 'Quick Filters' are available on both the Planning and Task boards.
'Quick Filters' only affect the cards that appear on the current board. Unlike context filters, these filters do not affect the values presented in the Statistics Column.
Your project administrator can configure the information that is displayed for an issue in each of these views. See Configuring your Card Styles for more information.
Tip: You can also change the viewing 'mode' of the Planning Board to view issues categorised by project, version, component or assignee. See Using Planning Board Modes to View Issues for more information.
To change your issues view,
Inline editing is available in all views ('Summaries', 'Cards' and 'List'), saving you significant time when actioning issues.

The detailed card is a detailed view of the issue, and presents more information than the summary view.

The summary card is a compact view of the issue. The purpose of this view is to display the most important fields of an issue in a card-feel form.

The list view is essentially viewing the issues as rows in a table. The issue will simply be represented as a single row.
This view is useful when 'ranking' issues, as it is the most compact view.
