Edit timeline event

Proposal

Edit an existing timeline event from manually in the UI.

Designs

Edit item in dropdown menu In-line editing
Timeline_tab_-actions__1 Timeline_tab_-_inline_edit
  • Introduce edit to the more actions menu
  • Clicking edit creates a form with inline editing
  • As with issue comments, people should be able to add new timeline items and edit existing timeline items simultaneously.
  • Note: people can only input a maximum of 280 characters in the timeline text field. So, the editing field should utilize the character counting field variant from Pajamas, as outlined in these docs.
  • System note based timeline events should not be able to be edited.
