How I Run PI Planning in Miro with Becky Juda

Hey Miro community, I’m Becky Juda, Senior Agile Delivery Manager at CleanChoice Energy, a renewable energy company committed to sustainability. I’m excited to share how our teams use Miro for PI planning. I really appreciate how Miro enables seamless collaboration among our dispersed teamsβ€”product managers, engineers, and designersβ€”across different locations. It helps us quickly tackle challenges, converge on feature designs, and ensure everyone is aligned to deliver results promptly. Here are some highlights from our approach: Having a structured quarterly planning template to stay consistent and organized Utilizing a cross-team tracker in Miro to visualize dependencies clearly Saving time with on clustering sticky notes with Miro AI Watch this video and head over to Miroverse for her free custom board with a Talktrack walkthrough just for you.

Replacable parameters or more specific participant list

For multiple day workshops, I have many work areas, where I need to assign names to each area based on my participants. Would be great if I could use variables/parameters to identify the different names, and then once I copy a standard exercise into my workshop board, I just have to define the participant names ones, and every work area automatically gets named accordingly. This could be done with just general variables, or even better, with a dedicated participant list, and I could then in my exercise templates reference either: <Participant1> for the name, or <Initial1> for the initials. Maan … that would save a lot of time.

Visualizing research triangulation in Miro

Hello, I just enjoyed watching Eduardos YouTube recording of "How Miro does UX research using Miro": https://youtu.be/pATeJdGUExE?si=W4CmaJHMMFo6jkmx&t=1020 In the video Eduardo explains that he uses Miro to triangulate results from different research methods like analytics, survey results and findings from qualitative studies to analyze it there. I wonder if you/ someone in this community has an example to share how this can be done in an elegant way for it not to look messy? Thanks in advance:-)Lene Eirin

How to run a team follow-up to get action owners?

Not a Miro specific question, but we ran a successful (Miro-based) workshop last week to flesh out the team’s opinions on what elements they think we can improve upon. We didn’t get time to assign owners/champions and I wondered if anyone had any inspiration for subsequent session(s) that look to do just that; get owners of the ideas that we discussed?

"How I Do Design Projects in Miro” with Thibaut DuprΓ©

Hey Miro community, I’m Thibaut, Director of UX at Dataiku , an artificial intelligence and machine learning company. And I’m here to share with you how our design team used Miro as a hub to refactor an entire presentation software in just a few months. I really like that in Miro we can easily get together with the product manager, engineers, and designers sitting in different locations. We can think about the problems at hand, converge on the feature design fast, and then everyone knows what to do to make it happen and see it live the month later. Here are just some of the things I cover in this video: How my team collates and annotates software screens in comprehensive UX audits How we create customer journey maps in Miro based on interview insights How we use Miro to prioritize work and use it as a single source of truth for the project If you have any questions, feel free to comment below and tag me.

Tip: Copy objects from one frame to another, and to the same location

A lesser known feature that is worth sharing, and one that I only recently stumbled upon by accident, is that it is possible to copy objects from one frame to another in a way that the pasted objects will end up in the exact same location as the originals. A common use case for this is that you want to add a logo to each frame for a presentation and want the logo to be in the exact same location, e.g., so their location remains static during a presentation. Note: In order for this to work exactly as expected, all frames would be the exact same size – both height and width. This is required because of how the feature works (it looks at the location of the copied object relevant to the parent/source frame, and then places it in the same x/y location in the destination frame(s). I will demo this later. How to do it Select one or more objects in a frame Copy them Select all of the destination frames (use can use Ctrl/Cmd-click to multi select) And then paste using Ctrl/Cmd-V.

Treat lines like other geometry

From request #711847 1. - issues with lines 01 - shows how a group without lines is considered a single object. To confirm, do you want the group to be considered multiple objects or is the single object a reference point for the next issue? K: A single object. 2. - issues with lines 02 - shows how a group with lines is considered multiple objects. Could you clarify your end goal with the multiple objects? Do you want the multiple objects to be grouped and moved together? If so, could you try selecting the multiple objects and moving them? Please see the following GIF and guide on How to move multiple objects with more details on how to do this. K: I want each group or frame to be consistently treated as an individual object. 3. - issues with lines 03 - shows how having groups that has lines in them suppresses Align/Distribute. To confirm, are you using connection lines on the object or lines drawn using the Pen tool? If you're using the pen tool, could you try using a Connection line
