I use the text boxes to create outlines of design wireframes for developer reference.
In these situations, it is incredibly common that I run into the character limit for the text boxes and have to break my outline into multiple boxes. The whole process becomes much more frustrating and cumbersome from then on out.
The imposed character limit seems incredibly arbitrary, pointless, and some of the formatting of outlines seems to eat away at the count even quicker.
At the end of the day, when I can easily paste giant image files that will certainly chew up my RAM, why is there such a miniscule text limit? surely it’s not a technical limitation.
At least allow for a “long text” box or something that supports big blocks of text. It is necessary for me to use your software effectively, whether your product team believes that method or not you shouldn’t actively prevent me from doing it.
Thank you

Hi
Do you know where the 6.000 character limit comes from, maybe a temp fix could be just to increase it some. Maybe just 12.000 characters. That would probably sove a big chunk of the issues.
This is a super important feature for me. Actively seeking alternative methods for my workflows in miro until the limit is increased to way way higher.
Please add a limit much closer to 20-30k characters!
This is a huge issue that seems intuitive for the collaboration between developers and UI/UX teams. Can we get support on this?
Ran into this issue today. The limit is surprisingly low. I would hope they’ll increase this massively. 6,000 characters is very small.
Same issue… blocking the brainstorming sessions when doing a list of projects for instance. 6000 gets reached very fast..!
I think I spotted a bug there also: copy / pasting in excel, the number of characters of this list seems not to be 6000, but 700+. Maybe only because of formatting / indentation. Hence in the end it’s quite small..!
Hi! I’m an Internet Systems Engineer and I have started seeing a lot of movement recently toward Miro for network diagramming. Initally it was great. Pop out a picture to describe an abstract Internetworking concept visually? Awesome!
But, in case you haven’t heard, networks don’t always function the way people expect and intend for them to. Because networks are controlled by and full of packets, sometimes (often) it helps to be able to get all the way down to that level to understand/explain what needs to change to make things work as intended. So, at the intersection of “here’s a picture of a large and complex system that you can understand at a glance” and “here’s 1500-9000 bytes of data from a single packet that traverses that system and does ssomething]” it helps to put text boxes with the dumped contents (explanations) of those packets into the illustration. Here’s four bytes of packet data explained, but it takes 190 bytes: Flags: 0x4000, Don't fragment
0... .... .... .... = Reserved bit: Not set
.1.. .... .... .... = Don't fragment: Set
..0. .... .... .... = More fragments: Not set
So this is the long way to say that in a market niche screaming for a universal platform to diagram networks this limitation of a text area is a dealbreaker.
