Hover on the Issue details icon to display the detailed dialog of the Jira issue.
The issue details shows the following information on:

Sprints view
On the right of the Issue list is the sprints view, showing the sprint timeline. This provides team managers the graphical view of the progress of the Jira issues and will be able to plan what to do next. They can also identify issues needing attention and see which team members are overloaded or have approaching due dates.
The red line indicates today’s date. If you drag the timeline scrubber, it changes the Activity date range filter. Hence, it will only show issues that have activity in that time frame. For example, dragging the slider to left lets you take a peek on what was worked on in the past few days or yesterday.
Hover the mouse pointer over the activity bar and it will show details about status changes, and statistics on development changes – for that day. This will display what type of work the team performed on that day.
Click on the Go to issue shortcut to take you directly to that Jira issue.
Scroll the timeline horizontally by using the scrollbar at the bottom page of the browser. The timeline shows a list of issues based on your selected Issue and Activity filters.
Click on an Issue row to expand child issues and view additional information by moving the mouse pointer over the revealed icons.
Finally, on the bottom part of the page, you will see the following shortcut controls if the list exceeds 25 rows:
| Control | Description |
|---|---|
| Displayed items | Set how many items per page will be displayed in the list view. |
| Page navigation | Shows the page controls to switch across several pages of information views. |
| Today | Clicking this button will automatically adjust the slider to today’s date. |
