Hello all,I am using:Chrome Browser Windows 10 Laptop I have a massive site map I am building.  The site map also has ‘data entry fields’, so it can be quite large.  For example my site map looks like the attached images. I have usually between 500 - 2000 objects per ‘screen group’ in my sitemap. When I select a large group of objects with the intent to move them from one area of the frame to another for organization purposes… The whole Chrome window locks up and freezes.  If I have ~200 objects, it still locks up but unfreezes after 6 seconds or so.  With 500 - 1000 objects it locks up and crashes entirely. I cant exit out of the tab and re-open the tab, the Miro tab still ‘spins’ and doesnt load.  I must close the entire browser when this happens, and re-enter Miro to edit my sitemap. Problem Summary:As a user, when I group or try to move in

HiI’ve been a little quiet here the last few days as I was off visiting a different  paradigm of tool set.Virtual conference centresOne example is QUBE which is proprietary (& quirky!). Another is Virbella which provides a campus on which one can buy office suites and conference halls (starting at $100/mth for 10 people).After a few days of playing my view is miro (or mural or deskle or conceptboard or awwap or twiddla…) are plug-ins to that host and not the primary ‘top’ piece of the connection chain.There have been a lot of wish list posts here that would expand miro to be all things to all users - an impossible goal. A goal i’ve been instinctively uncomfortable with. Its upside down. Like expecting a spanner to drive nails and paint door frames.Because of that ‘forced’ feeling I’ve had disquiet that things I want to do don’t work smoothly in miro. It makes for a UX that’s awkward in places. Now I’m imagining the drawing/ thinking tool

Usually I am creating the card in MIRO and link this card to JIRA. In JIRA a new issue will be created, which is linked to MIRO. But what is about existing JIRA issues? Is there a way to show these once in MIRO?

As above. We have a very tight and slow IT system with approvals etc.

Hello!I am a design student and due to the ongoing pandemic condition we needed an online whiteboard collaboration tool. Miro seemed perfect for our needs. So, me and my friends decided to make free accounts on Miro and one of us apply for educational account. But I am trying to summit my application for the past 20 days and it seems like the get in touch button on the bottom of the form is not working. At first I thought, they might be getting so many requests that's why they decided to close it temporarily.So, yeah tell me what do I need to do:- If I can get education account myself or do I need to have my institute arrange it for us through you guys.It might be some other issue with the button, I don’t know for sure.Thank you,Manav

Hello! I searched and did not see this question asked before… So here it goes.   Context: This whole post is regarding ‘User Story Framework Mapping’ Board Template.Question: Is there a way to shrink the text size on the ‘Cards’ of the ‘User Story Framework Mapping Template? It is difficult to read when the text expands.     Example:  See Image Attached.   Basically I have many ‘activities’ which are like: User Module 1 - Sub Module (A) - Type (A) User Module 1 - Sub Module (A) - Type (B) User Module 1 - Sub Module (B) - Type (A) User Module 1 - Sub Module (B) - Type (B)   For example: Community Area - Friendships - View All Community Area - Friendships - View single relationship - Detail Community Area - Following- View All Communit

I’ve been using frames on a large miro board to render presentation slides as a PDF document. Until a week or so ago Miro’s fonts were passing thru and showing up in the pdf. But now they are not and it is really frustrating.The rendered files look the same in acrobat and Mac preview and older exports still look fine so I don’t think it is on the reader side. Any ideas what could be going on? previous “correct” export” from a current export... 

Within a frame, I have some text. I then insert an icon and the icon moves to the top left of the frame and doesn’t let me move it anywhere else on the board except outside of the frame or in the top left of the frame. How can I move the icon where I want it to be (free form)?

Hi this is a pre sales question as I’m loving mind map but there is one issue that is blocking me us using it for our company, how is it possible to move a node in mind map on iOS (or any tablet)?  All of the online resources completely skip the fact there is no keyboard to hold down the control key when using an iPad etc, so the documented method of being able to move items around in a mind map appears to be impossible on a tablet?  This seems really odd as it would be simple to add a touchscreen button or option to enable the same functionailty as if a keyboard CTRL key was held as you drag, but after a great deal of time searching and trying to find a way it appears to be impossible?  Is this the case?  If so it breaks a crucial feature of mind map and means we can’t adopt it

Hi all, after leaving a board from my former team, I cannot login to my account anymore. And I was under the impression that I had a personal account. I seem to be stuck on the loading-screen (see screenshot).    

Hi I love the sticky capture feature but I am uploading a lot of content (50 images) from a workshop and the frames keep overlapping. I lock / unlock content and frames but I can’t find an easy way to manage the content and I don’t want to create a new board for each upload.  Any suggestions?

Hi community,Are there templates or best size frames to choose when creating something to use for example when creating something for fitting onto e.g. A4 page, 1280x960 page for screen design, instagram post format, facebook social graphic format) ? Thank you.

Hi community, a new Miro user here.As I understand it, there is no preset document when you just use your blank canvas?  The only presets are if you choose a template or a frame size e.g.  A4, Letter, 16:9, 4:3, 1:1, Phone, Tablet or Browser.  Is my understanding correct? Thank you.

When I import a Jira issue as a card in Miro I am only able to resize it with a fixed aspect ratio. I would like to change the aspect ratio to make the card visually better fit in my boards. I’ve not been able to figure this out so far. Is this possible or is it a feature request for the wish list?

Hi everybody, I restored a board with a backup file. I have the problem just now that it shows me as a creator of all sticky notes although other guys of the team created content. It happens exactly the same if I duplicate a board. It´s really important for me, that I get the information who created the content. Does someone know how to set it up to avoid this issue?  Best regards, Jens

HiI had a post i started and the best answer is set but I didn’t (knowingly!) set itHow/ who sets that?Surely it should be the post author? 

Hello all, on the consultant plan, how do I enable occasional team members to view/comment on boards without having edit rights? When I enable day passes, every time someone accessed a board, we automatically incurred a $3/day fee for that person, even if they were only viewing content.For now, I have disabled day passes until this is resolved!  

My team and I will need to have a workshop with people from all over the world and we were wondering if Miro works in every country. We are especially wondering for example about China,which has many restrictions.

Happy Monday everyone!I’m wondering if anyone has seen a similar issue. I am trying to use @Joanna’s amazing Digital Events board into my own team’s board. However whenever I try to use it it just appears to get stuck on loading and nothing happens?I’ve tested other boards and there appears to be no issue. Can anyone help advise how I can work around this as it would be great for a remote hackathon I am planning :D 

I’ve seen some boards recently with fonts in the thousands but I can’t get over 288 - any ideas? 

Hi, I want to connect 2 leading boxes to the preceding box, via the SAME arrow, can this be done?  

If I’m leading a workshop for 15-20 folks who are in different locations (either on Teams or Zoom) can I have them pop onto a brainstorming white board with Miro and make changes and edit during a work session?  How many licenses does that take if I’m leading the workshop?  I’m a bit confused as they would be different participants with each client I work with.  Does this make sense?

Hi folks,I’m working for an education non-profit and we’re creating some material for digital learning at the moment. We would like to create specific mindmapping boards with some questions on it that an endless (haha hopefully!) number of educaters can duplicate and use with their students. They should be able to duplicate and edit their own board(s), but not ours. The students should be able to access the teacher’s board without signing up if possible. Could anyone here tell me if that’s possible with Miro? Or is there some other way to let the educators employ our boards?I’d also be interested if someone here has qualified with their education non-profit for the education plan?Thanks so much! <3Nu

I’m trying to figure out the best way to create collaboration with clients over an extended period, so Day Passes don’t sound like they are going to cut it. I’m currently on a Business Plan. Does this work or should I be on the Consultant Plan (I’ve got about fifteen employees and contractors currently using it)? Do I need to make the clients team members? I only want them to have access to one board. How do people manage this?

When I import a PDF document into miro, only the first page appears. Do I need a paid plan to be able to load the entire such document?
