Hi ,
I’m creating an organization chart in MIKO and I’d really appreciate your help.
Does anyone know how to increase the font size of the text inside the chart boxes?
I’ve tried all the editing tools I could find and also attempted copying larger text from outside sources — nothing seems to work.
Would love any tips or ideas. Thanks in advance!

thanks for your question!
When you’re working with the Org Chart (Diagram) feature, the text size inside the boxes is currently auto-adjusted to fit the shape and can’t be manually resized with the standard text editing tools. That’s why copying larger text doesn’t change the size either.
Workarounds you can try:
If you need larger text, you can resize the box itself — the font will scale proportionally as the shape gets bigger.
For more flexibility, you can add a separate text box on top of (or next to) the org chart shape and style it however you like (font size, bold, color, etc.).
If the org chart requires more advanced formatting, some teams choose to build the structure with shapes + text manually, instead of using the auto-layout org chart tool.
Hope this helps!

But . . .
In case you are working with shapes, then I do have a tip/trick for you. If you just try to resize a single shape, the text stays the same size:
But, if you select several shapes at the same time and re-size them, the text will change size!
I don’t think this is an accident but it is most like an INCREDIBLE feature from some anonymous Miro software developer who really thought through this at a deep level and deserves a huge salary increase but probably didn’t get it. 😀 Because . . . normally if you resize a single shape, it is in the context of other shapes - so you want the text size to stay the same. But . . . if you resize several shapes, most probably your intention is to make everything bigger or smaller.
IMHO - BRILLIANT!
Hope this helps!
Cheers, Ken
