Sorry for this, this is a new bug that's appeared recently as this definitely has worked previously.  We will prioritise fixing this.

Thanks for pointing out.

I can't tell from your screen shot, but generally when a story has a lot of comments or acceptance criteria in sprint view, the story is collapsed to a certain height.  You can expand the story by clicking the more text.  Does that solve your problem?

Sounds like a bug, we'll prioritise that and fix ASAP.

Ok, let me have a think about it.  It's a difficult one because if we add another field into the backlog, then this will probably not be used by 95% of our users, and thus negatively impact most of our users.   I've added this requirement to our backlog, and should more people start to ask for this feature, we'll certainly look at a solution sooner.  Unfortunately it's quite far down our backlog at the moment because this feature is just not in great demand by most of our users.

I think stories do need to belong to one theme, but the idea of tags may in fact be useful, so you could for example tag a story with #ui, #tools, yet it belongs to the authentication theme.  In fact, someone else has been asking for this, see http://easybacklog.userecho.com/topic/100322-i-would-like-the-ability-to-add-tags-to-a-story/#comment_107550, so we'll be seeing what we can do in the near future to find a solution.

Matt

I understand what you are after, however adding tags to the stories is going to add yet another field that we're trying to avoid.  If you don't mind, leave this with me and if more of these types of requirements come up, we'll figure out a solution that does not impact on other users.  I hope you understand that we don't want to add a feature that will benefit you, but may in fact get in the way of 95% of our other users who don't need that feature.

Thanks for the feedback and suggestion.  We can certainly look into how to achieve this from Excel, however we don't use TFS so not quite sure how we can add support for this.  Let us experiment with Excel support, and hopefully it will also work for TFS.  However, in the mean time, can you help us a bit.  Can you go into Excel and TFS, and copy and paste the criteria into the text box at http://jsbin.com/oyejez/30/edit#preview.  Then once you have done that, please copy and paste the red text back into this support forum so that we can see how TFS and Excel is formatting the text.

Thanks
Matt
