Why can't you create a text field, which is available only in View issue screen.

If you are not setting a default value, you may add this to any transition screen too.

Do you need a default value for this Read only field ? or You are trying to set its value through post function or js ?

Hi Andrey,

I have installed your plugin and able to configure the custom fields created using administrator. But what I need a custom field type which is readonly to all the users/groups.

Thanks

Deepak

The built-in read-only text field is what you need then - it cannot be edited on-screen. You have to set it with post-functions or listeners (or import from CSV)
