    Right click to unlockOpen

    Big fan of miro, I’ve used it for at least 6 years now and there is a recurring issue which I’ve put up with, but it feels like this might be a bug, but certainly a usability issue, which adds unnecessary distraction.  So, say I am diagramming with shapes, over a background that’s been locked, the background still responds to my click, even though it’s locked. In all other tools I use a locked background doesn’t respond, to a click, only a right click to unlock. Why is this an issueCognitively the background (despite being locked) shows feedback, to indicate it’s locked, this happens every single time and it’s very distracting, especially with the kinds of intensive diagramming and mapping I do in my day to day work. No other diagramming tool I use has this behaviour. The consistent interaction pattern that they use, is to right click the object and then unlock it.  Duplicating - if I use cmd+D to duplicate and miss the object I am diagramming and mistakenly select the locked background object, it gets duplicated. (see example where an entire table was copied) bug, duplicated backgroundIt seems like a pretty easy change, one which would remove much friction and mean miro is consistent with other design tools. If you want to see this working the way I am proposing, check mural out, they seem to have got this right. What I am looking for is support to upvote. I’d be very interested in other people’s opinions as to how they have found this experience.
