Today we are glad to release JIRA Client 1.3, a desktop client for Atlassian JIRA issue tracking system. This version contains several important new features:

• Fast synchronization makes sure that you work with the latest data, while keeping network traffic and server load relatively low. (Quick Sync happens every 2-3 minutes and downloads only changed issues; Full Sync happens twice per day or when run manually with Ctrl+F5);
• Screenshot capture & edit tool allows to grab an image from the screen or clipboard and attach it to an issue. Before attaching, you can edit the image, for example, highlight an area to attract attention or blur private information;
• Export to PDF builds detailed reports ready for printing, with comments and attachments;
• Quick find & match highlighting allows to quickly search query result for specific terms or a regular expression, highlight matches or filter out non-matching issues.

Other improvements include:

• Spelling check for comments and text fields;
• Open selected issues in a separate tab or a separate window;
• Creating attachment with drag-and-drop;
• Use improved pager parameters to load bugs more effectively from JIRA versions 3.7+ (#813).

Upgrade is recommended for all users. All existing licenses will work with JIRA Client 1.3. Before installing the new version, please back up your workspace.

If you have tried JIRA Client before, you can install the newest version and get another 30-days free evaluation period.

Lastly, many thanks to everyone who sends us feedback or posts on our forum! Please keep your comments coming.
