Card Icons. Hierarchical Tags, RDF I/O

Hi there, I'd like to do 4 things. I'm wondering if someone has done these, or if there's a simple way to "hack" the functionality. Thanks! 1. Cards with icons. I'd like to be able to add an icon to a card. 2. Hierarchical tags. I'd like to have nesting in tags to import an existing hierarchy. 3. Import RDF. I'd like to create an importer of RDF files, so it would map them to a visual. 4. Export RDF. I'd like to take my mappings and export them to RDF.

Any way to lock the edge of a board?

Sorry if this has been asked before… Is there any way to ‘lock’ the edge of a board so that you cant go any further left, for example. I have a list of tiles that I want to always be on the left of the board, and no one should be able to put anything before them.

Team members unable to authenticate

currently working on a toy project for rolling dice. it needs read/write on a board.  https://github.com/megonemad1/MiroDicePostIt I’ve tried a bunch of different things. but i keep getting either “A client must have at least one registered redirect URL” or “A redirect_uri must be supplied.”   I’ve tried a bunch of different things any ideas? I’m aware: 'https://' + window.location.host + '/success.html' results to the wrong thing for github pages. fixing that doesn't fix the problem

How to horizontally/vertically distribute groups that contain frames?

Not sure why I can distribute (horizontally & vertically) groups of objects, but as soon as frames are part of groups, I can’t distribute them? The menue option isn’t there - I get offered un-group, only.

Indicator when lines are horizontal or vertical

When creating wiring diagrams for UI’s for example, or creating UML sequence diagrams you need to draw a lot of horizontal and vertical lines.  It would be really helpful if there could be some visual indication when drawing or extending lines that the are horizontal or vertical - a bit like the indications when you have something aligned with something else.

Dimensions of a board

I struggle with the dimensions of the templates and frames on my Miro-Board. My case is:  I have a Miro Board with different activities, for each activity I made a frame of template.  All the frames together, are the flow of the workshop.  But how do I know how big the frames must be? When is it big enough for the participants to have a good overview, to read the text in the frames when they zoom in? And how are my letters?  What is a good size of the frame to get a good structure of your board? Or, is anybody willing to share his or her template? So that I have an example?  Thanks a lot,  Mireille

Gray boxes around handwritten text

Hello, I am using Miro as a whiteboard replacement for my online quantum mechanics course at the University of Warsaw. So far everything is very smooth, the only thing that students have complained about is the fact that whenever I write something it appears inside a gray box with my initials. Sometimes this box does contain an entire word, but just a single letter (or even part of it), which makes it quite distracting. I understand that this is supposed to tell the others who is writing what but in my case, I am the only person writing on the board, so there is really no need for that.   Is there a way of switching off this feature so that no gray boxes appear when I write (either on my side or on the student side)?   thanks a lot! jedrek

Combine User Story Maps into one?

We created several user story maps for different parts of the process to ease facilitation. Now we’re reviewing those maps and want to combine all three into one and clean up overlap.  Is there a way to connect the end of one map’s backbone to the start of the next map’s backbone?

Is it possible to take a group of stickies and connect them so they move like a mind map?

I have created a group of stickies from client discussions and as I link them together I realize that it would be helpful to connect them into a mind map. Is it possible to easily perform this task? I’ve connected them but when I move them around the connected cards do not move and flow like a mind map which would be helpful.   Thanks, Glenn

Presentation mode link and video playback

Hi there,  I am a very happy Miro customer since a long time. I work in the entertainment industry as a creative and I have been using the board as my main creative tool and platform, mainly to organize my ideas with thorough mind maps and collaborative brainstorming session with my collaborators.  Recently I have been working on my presentation skillset within Miro with the goal to switch to this platform for all my client presentations (replacing Keynote). In my business line, very often we go through a preliminary remote phase when we have to send out a presentation deck to the client for a preview (before we even get to meet them in person). I thought it would be very useful to use Miro for this purpose cause I could embed video references to play within the presentation and boost the presentation effectiveness.  Unfortunately I found out that it is not that easy cause of the following issues: I couldn’t find a direct link to the board’s presentation mode (just a workaround copying

Is there a way to make objects into groups via SDK?

I currently am making an app that has cards that you can move around inside the board, and just want one SVG image of the card and have text that I can change since the messages can be changed from time to time, and making hundreds of SVG images with different text is not exactly ideal.   So I want to be able to create and image object and group it up with text, so I can drag the card around and have both image and text intact.

[RESOLVED] Screen Sharing and Video Chat are not working

Hello! I am preparing a workshop to be conducted by Miro. One of the essential features for conducting it will be Screen Sharing feature, where participants can follow my screen. I've used it several times and it worked perfectly, but today when I clicked my entire screen was frozen and I had to reload the board. I cannot use the function, nor does the Start button appear on the screen. Is this problem happening to anyone else? Is there any solution? Other people on my team tested and had the same problem. Thank you!

Voting - How many votes have been cast?

When I launch a Vote, is there any way to tell how many votes have been cast without closing the vote?  I launched a vote that is covering a couple of days, but I have no idea if folks are voting or not and am trying not to be a pest and keep sending emails.

Has anyone successfully integrated Excel into Miro?

Our company is looking to populate Salesforce information into MIRO via Microsoft Excel for project management. Ideally, we’d like to be pulling data sets and converting them into MIRO Cards for Kanban use. From there we’d like to track and report said cards Kanban position back to Salesforce via excel. At least until there is a more comprehensive Salesforce integration.    Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Invoicing for Team with less than 10 members

Hi dear,  since our Miro cost will be charged on a financed project, we would need to clearly track all expenses, providing invoices and proofs of payment. So I was wondering how invoicing would work for a 9 members team (knowing that self-serve invoicing is available just for 10+  team): Will I (as team admin) receive anyway an invoice from Miro or not? If not, how the payment process would happen? The post-payment invoice will be still available also for our (small) team? Thank you!

How can you share scale and translation changes to your drawing to others?

  hi all,    I’m a teacher exploring using Miro for replacing whiteboard as we move to online education.  I also do some collective drawing exercises so I’m excited to try Miro as a tool in online workshops, etc.  One issue I see is that if I am sharing a board with someone, they can see my drawing update in realtime but if I translate / zoom those transformations are not shared.  For example, I could fill the space with notes and then translate over and draw something else, but their screen is not updated when I change and drawings can quickly become out of the field of view for my students or others I am sharing with.  Is there a way to pass translation and zoom on to other people?    I’d like to make sure they see what I see.  I am a big fan of the infinite canvas model (where you can draw, and pan / zoom, etc) but it feels like unless there’s a way for them to know that the drawing is offscren, it’s un-useful and potentially kind of harmful as I could be drawing in a place they can
