Questions & Ideas

Hello!I am running a workshop where I need that the pen colours match the sticky note colours. Is there a way I can limit the pen colours of the participants of my board? Or create a colour palette for all the boards of one project?Many thanks!Sol 

How can I stop auto-syncing every time I edit something?, every time I delete or edit something, a thirty-second synchronization message appears, how can I deactivate it and make the backup whenever I want?Thank you.

Do we have a text or PDF Miro Quickstart Guide, where all the info for beginners is in a single book/file?

Hi, I’m having problems changing the geometry of a card.e.g. (from python)payload = { 'geometry':{'width':260, 'height':130}}url = f"https://api.miro.com/v2/boards/uXjVPdveOFo=/cards/3458764531765310379"response = requests.patch(url, json=payload, headers=headers).json()results in {'type': 'error', 'code': '3.0215', 'context': {'boardId': 'uXjVPdveOFo=', 'itemId': '3458764531765310379', 'validationErrors': [{'code': '3.0211', 'message': 'Value for width should be greater than or equal to 256.0, found: 147.39173256538714'}]}, 'message': 'Unable to complete operation because of the validation errors.', 'status': 400} which doesn’t make sense as the width I’m setting is > 256. It seems if the card has been manually resized at some point, the API call will either get ignored (response returns the size set, but item on canvas does not change) or it returns a nonsensical error.Is this a bug in the API?

is there a way to build in hiding/revealing of shapes and lines in a flow chart as part of a presentation?  we’d like to present our flow chart as part of a presentation, walking the viewers through the steps, but given that there’s alot of extra data in the final overall view, we’d like to only reveal items relevant to the topic of each slide.  Short of duplicating everything into multiple slides and deleting items, is there a way to do this?  like, have a base, background chart, and then in each slide, select what’s visible and not visible?

I use Miro 10 hours/day for my role leading Design Thinking at Bose. Today, the majority of my boards are freezing when I zoom in to the point where I need to quit the app and rejoin. I use the Miro iPad app exclusively and have never had this issue before. It seems to be happening more often or sooner on some boards than others, but it’s a fairly consistent problem overall. Anyone else having this issue? 

I am creating this post to track some inconsistent behaviour regarding pasting spreadsheet cells on to a Miro board.The expected result is that the cells appear as Sticky Notes on the board. However, there have been some reports that Text objects are being created instead. My test data as two cells in Excel, Excel web app, and Google Sheets:I then pasted a single cell (the one with “one” in it) and then both cells at the same time.I did this in both the latest 64-bit stable Chrome and Miro desktop app from Windows 11.From my tests, I consistently got plan text when pasting a single cell from Google Sheets.Results:Chrome Desktop app Tagging @Kerrin and @JonoB here as they had reported the issue in an older post.

I would like to select a source shape then select multiple destination shapes. Then have Miro draw either a line with multiple heads to each of the destinations or simply draw multiple lines for me to each of the destinations. Creating one to many lines is time consuming and tedious.

HiI have a user who’s name is listed as Guest. They were a guest on a board and I deleted their account and invited them as a full member and their account name still comes up with the name Guest. How can I change the users account name from Guest to be the users actual name, which is the way all the other user accounts are?

Hi there. I have 15 stickies, aligned vertically. I originally imported them from Excel. I want to align them horizontally. To do so I capture all of them by dragging the mouse over them. Then I click on the align tool and select ‘Align horizontally’ and nothing happens. It makes no difference if the stickies are in a frame or not. f I group them then the align tool disappears. Any suggestions on why the align tool is not working? Looking forward to hearing from you ...Tom 

I am comparing Team vs Business and there is Business only feature title (Miro Smart Diagramming) which states “Visualize ideas fast with tools for BPMN, ERD, cloud architecture, and more.”I am definitely going to do some BPMN related diagrams and Cloud type diagrams.  BUT not sure if this is simply stating Business and above is the only one that can DO BPMN or CLOUD type diagrams or if it is something else entirely.  When I look at Miro it has BPMN in the lower version.Could someone shine some light on what exactly does (Miro Smart Diagramming) mean?Thank you in advance!

Nothing works.EDIT: I also cleared my cache on both devices.Hope you can help me.Thanks Niklas  

  Hey, I think I posted this in the wrong / suboptimal category, sorry: Hey there     I would like to use a Modal within my App’s UI, but am faced with a rather suboptimally looking result when it comes to the backdrop:   Use case 1: Plugin’s settingsWith SDK v1, the entirety of the modal in which the App is rendered could be styled, but with SDK v2, it seems that you guys enforce a (admittably healthy) default padding outside of a Plugin dev’s control (on the “rtb-modal-container__content” I think?).   Use case 2: Import progress  Any chance we can get back (or somehow have) (full/partial) control over the modal’s styling?  Or will I have to scratch the idea and just use the whole iFrame, without any backdrop?  

Hi there We have a community of 100 learners in our team.  We want each individual learner to have there own project, plus create other projects which the entire community will have access to.  How many projects can you have in one team?  Thanks Megan

Hi!A colleague included me on a Board in his Team, but I’d love to keep the Board also in my Team's organization structure so I can keep it with other related projects.  I gather that I could export the Board to my own Team (e.g. back up the Board to an external RTB file, import into my Team), but then any updates on my colleagues Board wouldn’t be reflected in my version, right?  I’m curious if there is something like a “Board alias” that would allow me to have a live copy of the Board in my Team or a placeholder that links to Board instance the other Team?Thanks!MD

hello everybody, should it be there a free plan to show here? why there is no for me?😆 by the way,  I have not added any teams yet. 

The Miro web app squats on common browser shortcuts. Specifically ctrl/cmd-[1 2 0] for various zoom levels interferes with Chrome’s ctrl/cmd-[1 2 3 … 9] for quick-switching among the first-9 / last tabs. I understand not everyone uses these shortcuts, but for those of who do, they become second-nature, with tabs intentionally positioned so that they can be quickly accessed.If there were simply a configuration option that allowed these keyboard shortcuts to be disabled or changed, it would be a huge help for day-to-day use. I can’t seem to find an option of this sort, but perhaps I’m missing something?

 Where do i find this button on miro, which is fundamental on every product out there in the market. its no where to be seen. I want to just move around, like a normal human
