Import Excel cell colours as sticky note colours

When importing Excel cells as sticky notes into Miro, is there a way to import cell colours as different sticky note colours? I don’t think there is but it would be a handy feature.

Miro user interface

I have been using Miro for several months now. I love the complexity of the boards I can build (and the simple ones too).  But I have found it’s user interface horrible. I often drag things when I want just to change position of what I have on the board. I have difficulty clicking where i can change text or selectin an item to move. I am not a software newbie - but continue to struggle.Maybe I just haven’t slowed down enough.  I was wondering if others had this problem and what I can do about it.

When you start a video chat, I can't see a link to give guests to watch

Anyone know where the share link is once you start a video chat?I want to invite a guest to the video chat, I think it better to share a board and see your guest's face while we talk over the board.

Is it possible to turn off the lasso tool?

Hi, is it possible to turn off the lasso tool?In a client workshop yesterday a participant managed to accidentally grab dozens of elements and drag them out of main view.  The only way I think they could do that is with the pen / lasso feature…Any advice would be welcome!

Expand pdf pages - change in rights?

Hey all, I just mentioned that I can not expand or flip pages in an pdf file on the board. This is strange as I am the owner of the board and using the consultant plan. Even stranger, that it worked before.I found out that only the person copying the file on the board is able to extract the pages. A doubled file does lose this ability. Is this a course of changes in rights? Can I change this? Greetings from germanyJan

Password Protection for Frames?

Can a Frame or section of a grid be password protected so changes can only be made by someone who holds the password?  I use Miro for online photography critiques and it has been a bit of a problem as students have inadvertently altered other students work.  It seems that the locking function is not adequate.  If no, is there another way to password protect parts of a board?  Thank you!
