I have a custom field, with a value, that's not configured on any screens. When viewing the issue (eg. https://blah.atlassian.net/browse/PROJ-1810) I want to see the custom field and it's value. When I "Create" or "Edit" an issue, I don't want to see the custom field, which is why it's not configured in my Default Issue Screen nor my Bug Issue Screen.
To be clear, the custom field does have a value. If I add it to any of my screens, it does appear when viewing an issue. I don't want it on my screens because I don't want users to edit the value.
Hello,
When you configure screen schemes, there are tree types of screens: edit, create and view. In your case you have to make two screens. Suppose one screen is called "Issue_Default_Screen". You do not put the custom field you are talking about on the screen. The second screen name, suppose, is "Issue_View_Screen" and you put there your custom field. When you configure the screen scheme you put as the default screen "Issue_Default_Screen" and you put as the view screen "Issue_View_Screen". In this case on the create and edit screen you will not have the custom field. But when you view an issue, you will see the field.

Thanks for your help! I eventually figured it out.
The part I was missing: I didn't realize each Screen Scheme has 3 configurable Issue Operations. If an Issue Operation is not configured, rather than not showing it at all, show it and tell me that it's not configured. Something like this:
