Custom Toolbar Panels in Web-plugins

Hi,I initially posted this topic in the Ideas forum, but I don’t think it was appropriate as the Ideas forum seems more oriented toward end-user new features. This is about a web-plugin feature, and maybe there already exists a solution or workaround, so I’m reposting it here, slightly reworded. Sorry for the duplication.--------------------------------I’m looking for a way to display “toolbar panels”, i.e. small panels on the right of the toolbar, that display options for the selected tool, like the ones that are displayed when selecting the Pen tool, Shape tool, Frame Tool, etc. For now, miro.board.ui allows to display a library (.openLibrary) or a sidebar (.openLeftSidebar), but they are rather bulky for some simple use cases, and one cannot decide their size.Actually, it should be possible to decide of the height and width of the toolbar panel, as the example above they may appear in different sizes -- e.g. something like openToolbarPanel(“my-toolbar-panel.html”, { width: “56px”, h

Unable to Recover Board

TLDR: Lost access to board (Free Plan), yet URL link not allowing board recovery.Hi Community, This is my first question, so forgive me if I make any blunders. So the start up I’m part of is using Miro boards, and we have largely had a great experience using it! It was a good platform to help enable and document collaboration. Recently however, something has gone wrong and one of our boards has gone and disappeared.Now from what I understand, Free Plan users should be able to recover deleted boards using the URL link. When I tried to replicate this proposed solution, I was given a different error message. I’ve inserted two screenshots to see if anyone else recognises it:Board does not exist.This board is no longer shared, or has been removed. FWIW, I have tried reporting this as a potential bug to Miro too, but I’d be happy to be wrong if there’s a solution. At the end of the day, we just want to get access to all the ideas we worked hard on crafting. Thank you so much for all your hel

Selection Tool (V) not working

I was cruising along and all was well… when all of the sudden the select tool stopped working as usual. For some reason ( while in mouse navigation mode ) left clicking the canvas alway uses the Pan Tool rather than drawing a selection box as expectd. So.. Select the selection tool or push V on the keyboard while in mouse navigation mode click on canvas holding down the button and dragging instead of dragging out a selection box the tool mysteriously changes to the Pan Tool and pan’s the keyboard???Previously I would use space bar to pan the keyboard. Now it’s just broken? Thanks for your help in advance.

[RESOLVED] Some objects are stuck at the same place and won't move

I have many boards on different accounts and I see the same lag. I tried to move frames, stickers, tables, mindmaps, shapes, it just randomly happens to any of the elements on a board. When I try to drag it to another place, it moves, but the moment I release it, it bounces back to where it was. None of the elements are locked. They are just stuck in random places. Does anybody know what I can do about it? It’s really annoying and frustrating.

Diversity in Emojis

I’d like to request a more diverse set of emojis--more skin tone options, specifically. I see some good non-male-female family emojis, but no discernible differences in race or physical ability in the people emojis. Similar convo in Diversity in IconFinder.

How do I get Miro to stop preventing my browser from hiding on Command-H?

(Mac) Command-H does nothing in Miro.  This is a big problem, because IT’S SUPPOSED TO.  It’s supposed to hide my browser.  This “little thing” has become a bigger and bigger problem.  How do I disable this and get Miro to hide like any other web page I might be on at that second!?

Consultant plan downgrade leaves only 3 Miro-created boards editable

I was paying for a consulting plan. Miro at some point created several boards itself, in an ‘Explore Miro’ project it also created itself, to give an overview of the plan.I cancelled my plan and downgraded to the free plan, which keeps 3 boards editable.Only the 3 most recently created Miro boards can be edited -- any board I actually created is now view-only. Is there any way to instead get 3 of the boards I created editable under the free plan?

Why does the name of each frame not appear in PDF print?

The names of each frame do not appear on the PDF print out of a MIRO board.  This seems an important factor as it is part of the organising/grouping of sticky notes. Is this a configuration issue? Can I change this in settings somewhere?

Sticky notes do not stick

Hi everyone!I have been having issues with sticky notes. Somehow when I add them to some frames on my board they do not stick - even though they used to before. To my knowledge, I did not change any of the settings (maybe by mistake if thats even possible). Has anyone experienced this issue?The frames are in “freeshape” mode. Thank you!

Text Issues

I am very new to Miro. I have been experimenting on the free plan. On one of the free boards I thought I would see if I could upload a picture. This worked, but doing this has done something to the text feature. After uploading the picture, I tried to use the type text feature. Instead of getting the usual text box in which to type. I blue line appeared - I though it was a condensed text box, but I was not able to expand it. When tried to use the dots at the end of the blue line all is did was change the position of the line. I then deleted the picture but the text issue remained.

Looking for a Miro developer for an extended card functionality

Hi,we’re looking into extending the functionality of the current cards on Miro.Firstly, I’m a simple Miro user, and have no idea of how to develop an app/ add-in, how to work with APIs, SDKs or whatsoever, all of that is cryptic to me. And that will stay so because I don’t need to.So I’m looking for someone who could develop an extended card function we can use.Basically I want to create a set of cards (think board game) which I can put on a Miro board. They have two sides: the front side has an image, a single sentence, and possibly a colour code (to group cards) – very similar to the existing card functionality.The back side is rich-text/ rich-media, containing text, tables, links, images, maybe videos, … (the default card functionality allows for bold/ italic text, for lists, and links, but nothing more, which is insufficient).It would be lovely if it created the impression that the card is flipped over, but just “expanding” it would work, too. It’s just important that I can fully c

Security issue with sharing the board link with outside users

Hi,I need to give editing rights on one of my boards to few editors outside. They are not part of the team and will not be. The issue is that the shared link is not secure and I have no clue if they share the link with someone else. I know I can set password but again there is no visibility for me to see how many have access to my board.Any suggestions??

When copying entire boards, allows links in the Notes section to correspond to the new board

This was addressed in a post 6 months ago but currently what we want is not possible. The problem step-by-step:1. Board A created. In the Notes section, there are links to specific areas of Board A.B2. Board A duplicated to create Board B.3. In Board B, in the Notes, the links go to Board A area.Request: Allow links in Board B Notes to correspond to areas in Board B, not back to Board A.

WebSDK & REST API

Users use an installation link to install the plugin. How do I get an access token to use for the REST API?The SDK only offers `miro.getIdToken`, but not an accessToken. Use CaseI have a plugin that can drag & drop elements into the Miro board. Users can purchase additional elements to drop. Therefore, I have a backend that keeps track of user purchases.Web SDK initializes plugin. I use `miro.getToken()` (deprecrated) in the Web SDK to retrieve a token. I make an API call to the backend, using this token. My backend uses https://api.miro.com/v1/users/me to retrieve the e-mail address. I cross-reference the e-mail with the purchases in the web-shop to unlock purchased products for this user (*)With the deprecation of `getToken()`, I cannot access the REST API anymore. The new idToken returns 401 Unauthorized.*) Actually ​​​​​​, this is a bit different, but doesn't matter for this context.

Install location and Automatic updates

Dear Miro team, I work for the Council of Europe as an IT Technician. I want to create a Silent/Unattented package that installs Miro. Currently, the miro.exe file installs the software at %APPDATA%\Local\… And the default installer doesn’t seem to provide a way to change the install location. The idea would be to install it outside of the user profile, in Program Files. Do you know how to change the default location ?Secondly, the app seems to update automatically which is an issue to us who use the applocker. Is there a way to disable the automatic update with a commandline ? (Could be registery, or just an argument during the installation?)Thanks for the help, Best, Charly F
