Hey all, I created a board. When I try to access it on a different computer however, it’s empty. Same thing happens when I create a copy of my board. Can anyone help me with this?

 

Thanks

Max

@gruezi.max My pleasure!

BTW, for anyone reading this, the issue was that there were two sets of objects spread very far apart on the board — some added by gruezi.max and some added by Miro (i.e., a template) at the time of board creation. The Show all was doing what it should, however, the items were so far apart that they were almost not visible. To confirm where objects were on the board, we did a Ctrl/Cmd + A to select all, and then moved one of the blocks of objects up beside the other.

Tip: locked objects will not be picked up in a Select all, so you may need to first right-click on the canvas and Unlock all.

@gruezi.max What happens when you right-click on the canvas and select Show all? (Or you can use the Alt/Option + 1 shortcut).

@Robert Johnson Thanks for the tip! I’m afraid nothing happens, the board remains empty.
