Hello,
I use Miro a lot to build mind maps. It's definitely one of the best features ever made.
I work a lot with the colors of the elements, to represent status or feelings.
However, there is a very annoying behavior when we migrate an element to another node. The colors of the parent node and child nodes are completely replaced by the color of the new parent node.

On migrate:
 


This is very bad when you have styled nodes and lose all the style already done.

The same happens when we change the color of a parent node, the color of its child nodes are also all replaced.


I would like to suggest an option to disable color inheritance of frame elements, not for new ones, but for those that are moved in the node tree or changed by changing the color of the parent node.

I’m working on an organization diagram, colouring different people depending on their roles.

If the diagram is extended at the top and that person has a color change, it propagates to everyone below, which is a severe impediment to achieving the overview I’m looking for.

I really hope disabling color inheritance gets prioritized soon. 🤞


I have the same issue, I have a parent node for each week, and many child nodes that branch out in each week.  I want to copy this week to next week, and it changes everything to color of this weeks parent node.  I end up having to copy each child node with all its branches, then changing the colors manually.  It can take me a good 10-15 minutes to accomplish this.

It would be great as the originator of this topic suggests to disable the color inheritance of the new parent node.
