Hi @Leo Caves !

The plugin is already available. I will send a link to install it in personal messages.

Hi @Alexander Kuznetsov 

Very interested to use the random number plugin

We are developing a board to host a multi-day workshop and have a collaborative exploration/synthesis frame where we need a bounded random number generator.

I watched the demo video on the twitter link.  When will the “dice” go live?

Many thanks

Leo

Hello everyone!

Our development team has created just such a plugin.

The plugin is a dice that you can click on to get a random number. You can use this plugin to play some games or randomly select a person or whatever you want.

You can see how it works in this post: https://twitter.com/domagic4people/status/1301814827501924352 

If you want this plugin, you can write me a personal message or reply in this topic :slight_smile:

@Alexander Kuznetsov I would love to know more about this plugin! I'm working on a project in school learning game design

@Aleksandra Dmitrieva -

A solution (third-party) was provided here: https://community.miro.com/wish-list-32/randomizer-dice-coin-percent-etc-283

I also need the dice roller desperately! Trying to find something, but nothing works but the one Kiron suggested. The problem of this “dice” is that only the person who rolls it can see the result. Working with children I can´t always trust the numbers they say they get :sweat_smile: ! So, @Boris Borodyansky I will also be terribly grateful for your kind support!

Awesome @Boris Borodyansky - it would be great to have a native widget vs. the kludge of an iFrame based 3rd party site.

I’ll see what I can do… :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Thanks Michael! 

It is still a bit of an ugly solution as you can’t customize the look of the iFrame box and I’ve been unable to get the external widget to use different text labels or colors. 

Perhaps @Boris Borodyansky will find a half-hour of spare time on his hands to whip up a quick bottom bar app for us :joy:

Hi Kiron,

it works - thanks for sharing.

Whats nice is that the rest of my board gets greyed out and this tool gets into the focus.

I found the following code which uses a third-party site to do this. I dropped it into an iframe widget and it works but is still a bit kludgy:

<iframe src="https://www.random.org/widgets/integers/iframe.php?title=Roll+The+Dice&amp;buttontxt=Roll&amp;width=160&amp;height=200&amp;border=on&amp;bgcolor=%23FFFFFF&amp;txtcolor=%23777777&amp;altbgcolor=%23CCCCFF&amp;alttxtcolor=%23000000&amp;defaultmin=1&amp;defaultmax=6&amp;fixed=on" frameborder="0" width="160" height="200" scrolling="no" longdesc="https://www.random.org/integers/">
The numbers generated by this widget come from RANDOM.ORG's true random number generator.

The closest I’ve been able to come with my (VERY STALE) development background was to open the Developer Tools panel in Chrome, and paste this into the console “alert('You rolled a ' + (Math.floor( Math.random() * 6 ) +1));

This works, but it is a kludgy solution. My preferred option would be a simple button in the bottom bar which would pop up the alert when you click on it.

I’m guessing this would take a Miro developer all of half an hour to develop & test it so hopefully this inspires one of them :joy:
