Swim lane issues

I'm probably doing something wrong, but I'm encountering an issue when importing vsdx's into Miro, when doing either single or bulk import the swim lane names appear below the swim lane, and are partially hidden.

vsdx image.

After import into Miro (red circles highlight the labels).


Things I've tried:
Using cross functional swimlane shapes in the source vsdx, same result
Using BPMN swimlane shapes in the source vsdx, same result

Tried double clicking directly on the swim lanes label box and it just highlights the existing text at the bottom of the lane.

Is this the expected behaviour when importing vsdx's with swim lanes?

I have over 100 vsdx's to move to Miro and I'd rather not manually recreate them.

Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi ​@Matthew Brothwell 

    Thanks for detailing what you've already tested.

    I don't believe swimlane labels are intended to be partially hidden after import, so this may be related to how the VSDX file is being converted into Miro.

    Since you've reproduced the behavior with multiple swimlane types and across both single and bulk imports, I have your case converted to a support ticket. You should receive a response shortly.
