Solution
Increasing the Size(Height) of the field
Edit <atlassian-jira/WEB-INF/classes/templates/jira/issue/field/versions-edit.vm. Change the line:
1
<select multiple name="$field.id" size="#minSelectSize ($versions 1 6)" id="$field.id">For example, if you wanted to make it 15 (in the case where there are more than 3):
1
<select multiple name="$field.id" size="#minSelectSize ($versions 1 15)" id="$field.id">Make sure to back up the velocity file before changing it. Keep in mind the notes from Modifying JIRA Templates and JSPs.
