Hi, how can I add more snapping point to a square?
default just gives the center points but I would like to have something on 1/4
Question
more snapping points on a block
+5HI
Thanks for your question!
Just to make sure I understand correctly — are you referring to adding more alignment/snapping points on a shape (square) so you can connect or align objects at quarter points (e.g. 1/4 positions on each edge), rather than just the default center and mid-edge snapping points?
If so, could you also confirm:
- Are you working with basic shapes, or using a specific Miro tool (e.g. wireframes, diagramming, etc.)?
- Is your goal mainly for connector attachment points or for alignment/guides?
Once I have a bit more detail, I can guide you on the workaround or available options.
yes i use basic, standard shapes
my goal is, that all lines snap neatly to the same “newly set up point”
in my screenshot marked as “1”
it is a off cengter point and I woudl like all lines to snap here
but I also want all the new blocks add below
to snap to the line jusnction above like at point “2” “3” ….

At the moment, basic shapes in Miro use predefined connection points, and there isn't a way to add or customize additional snap points at specific locations such as quarter points along an edge.
As a workaround, you could try using invisible helper shapes or small anchor objects positioned where you'd like connectors to attach, but I realize that isn't as seamless as having custom connection points built into the shape itself.
If custom snap points would be valuable for your workflow, this could also make a great Wish List post for the product team to consider.
