Resize UML classes


It seems that there is something off with resizing classes in a UML diagram.

 

If I need to enlarge the class to show more attributes, it also expands the operations space unnecessarily, and there’s no way to grow the attributes space inside the existing shape space. This leads to ugly looking objects with large, empty operations space.

It’s really important to be able to grow/shrink the two spaces of the object separately.

I have the same issue


Hi everyone 👋

You are right, currently, it's not possible to auto-resize the UML Class shapes so they show the text correctly in the blocks. The good news is that this improvement is already in our backlog.

With that, we have converted this post into a Wish List idea, and will post an update here in the thread once we release this functionality.


Thank you, @Helga.

Please keep us updated this topic. 


Are there any ETA updates on this please?


Hi @Roman Deputat @Todd Slavinsky 👋

The improvement is in the backlog.
I’m afraid that we don’t have any ETA from the Product team.


I have the same issue on the MIRO app and the UML shapes.

Can that be ranked higher ?:)


I also have this issue!


This isn’t a problem specific to UML classes. Currently, there is no way to easily resize one shape within a group of shapes. I think the fact that this “wish list” item is specific to UML classes is likely why people are not finding this post and therefore not upvoting it. There has to be a significant number of people struggling with this for any number of diagraming and visualization needs - not just UML. It seems kind of ridiculous that this is not a higher priority; it’s such a common, fundamental need.

Even though the large company I work for has provided everyone Miro access, my team started using Figma for diagraming because we ran into so many blatant short-comings like this in Miro. It’s just so time-consuming to work with if you’re trying to create a consistent and organized visualization. Everything becomes a manual, tedious process of redrawing, resizing, recreating and repeat every time you add a new shape in your diagram or, god forbid, try to resize the content within a shape.


What a pity.

We just upgraded our company account to for the purpose of editing UML.
But, frankly speaking, issues like this make miro practically unusable for professional UML work. 
We will consider downgrading again.


It’s been more than a year, no improvement yet. Still huge empty classes all the way...

 

When?..


How come this is still not an available feature? 


This is still a problem, the UML class diagram is not worthy for many applications because they can’t add new operations or attributes!
