STILL NOT RESOLVED - FRAMES EXPORTING IN CORRECT ORDER

Hello Miro Community,

Miro is great at presentations and maintaining the order inside its platform, however when the client wants a pdf copy of that presentation the whole experience goes to hell in a handbasket. There is a significant issue when attempting to export the presentation into a pdf. 

  • The order of the frames is jumbled randomly when exported.
  • Additional programs are required to then put into order i.e. adobe, bluebeam, etc
  • None of the solutions on Miro community work - I have tried them all!
  • Inefficient - especially over something rather basic… page order

I have done everything from filtering to clicking each frame in the order I want the presentation to be without any resolve. 

  1. Is it the size of the file issue?
  2. Is there a limit to how many frames the platform is capable of handling?
  3. Do we need to use a compliant/preferred browsers?
  4. HELP

When it comes to the user group of architects and designers this is a real problem. A duplication of work and a cost to the client. Please come up with a path that actually works.

Sincerely - a fan of MIRO

Bobby

@Bobby Bracelin - I just did a few tests with expected ends results.

Test 1 - I Ctrl-left-clicked three frames in the order I wanted them to be as pages in a PDF:

 

The result was as selected: three page PDF, with frames 4, 2, and 6 as pages 1, 2, 3.

 

Test 2 - Order in left frames sidebar and then export board.

 

After the screenshot, I changed the order to:

 

it exported as:

 

I tried Small file size and Best quality for both tests, so four exports in total.

Can you share more details of what steps you are taking? Loom is free and quite easy to use and share a video right in this post.

Additionally, if you have a paid Miro subscription, you can open a Miro support ticket by following these instructions:

Previously, it was possible to export the PDF according to the Frame order in the Frames Sidebar.

However, since Miro changed their Export Behavior, the order in the Frame section seems not to be respected anymore (according to your findings).

Additionally, the Option “Rearrange Frames” that existed a couple of month ago is not available anymore.
This leads to the highly annoying behavior that the order of the Frames is completely useless (perhaps by creation date?).

Dear Miro Team: Please give us back the functionality to automatically rearrange the Frames in the Sidebar according to their position on the board.
Please also make sure that if you export the whole board as PDF, the order of the items is as expected (= according to the order in the Frames Sidebar).
