Dear MIRO Team,

I trust this email finds you well. My name is Irving, and I am the Director of Design Technology at Studio PCH, an architect firm based in Los Angeles CA. I am reaching out to express our satisfaction with your products, which have significantly contributed to our design coordination efforts over the past year.

Given our positive experience, I am interested in discussing the potential for further collaboration. I believe a virtual meeting via Zoom or a call would be beneficial to explore how we can enhance our design process by integrating new features into MIRO. This aligns with our goal to continually improve our work processes and leverage MIRO more effectively in the future.

Would it be possible to schedule a convenient time for a discussion? I am open to coordinating with you directly or reaching out to a designated contact person if necessary. The integration of new features is crucial for us to optimize our workload and ensure greater efficiency in our design endeavors.

I appreciate your time and consideration on this matter. Please let me know the next steps or if there is a specific contact person I should liaise with regarding this discussion.

Thank you, and I look forward to the opportunity for collaboration.

 
 
See ideas we’d like to add into the MIRO tools 
1- Free hand crop for images 

 

2- Improve the drawing tools, when creating a line it always links automatically to an image or frame, and it is hard to use lines or arrows 

 

3- Arrows with Text (like bluebeam) 

 

4- Improve text options, (have more options to edit text for presentations) 
5- Mirror and image to be able to flip it 
6- - Image distortion 
 
 
Let me know if you have any questions, and would be great to discussed this if needed, 
 
Thank you!
 
Best regards

Good luck with that request. People were asking for ability to change the rectangle corner radius for years. Instead they got Miroverse, AI assistant and bunch of other usless corporate software integrations 🙃

1- Free hand crop for images 

You can freehand crop images by double-clicking on the image and dragging the white boxes:

 


2- Improve the drawing tools, when creating a line it always links automatically to an image or frame, and it is hard to use lines or arrows 

 

To disable snapping to other objects hold Ctrl (for Windows) or Cmd (for Mac).

3- Arrows with Text (like bluebeam) 

I am not familiar with Bluebeam, but in Miro you could either

  1. add text direction to a connection line:

  2. Or add a text object and draw a line from it:

     


4- Improve text options, (have more options to edit text for presentations) 

I’m not sure what you mean here. Can you give an example?


5- Mirror and image to be able to flip it 

I agree. You should add your vote to this Wish List idea post → Mirror / Flip Image - Vertical & Horizontal

6- Image distortion 

To improve visibility, you may want to consider posting this as its own idea.
