Static text box width

Hi there! I’m loving using Miro but I can’t for the life of me find out how to keep a text box from expanding automatically as I type. For example, I’ve drawn out a square shape and I want to type in bullets in the dimensions of this square. However, when I use a text box on top of the square, despite drawing it to the width of the shape, if I type a long sentence the width goes wider than the width of the square. Is there any way that I can ‘lock’ the dimensions of the text box?  I would double click within the text box and use the text feature in there but as far as I can see I can’t use bullet points within that feature.  Any help?  Thanks! :)

Everyone on same part of screen

Hi, I am doing some online teaching and I would like the students to be able to edit the board as we go through the lesson.  However,  I want them to all be looking at the same screen as I have, but as is it is a big board I find some of them are going off and drawing on other parts of the board.  Is there a way to present the board as, for example, pages, so we are all on the same page!?   Thank you

Changing the focus of the root

I am used to NEO4J, which is a graphical database, hence my question. Is it possible to change the root of the drawing? For example: I have Customers, Products and Users If i choose customers as the root, i can see what products they are using and the users of those products. Alternatively, I can click on Products, and see what product a customer, is using. Can i change the rendering of the the connections i have drawn out for different audiences?   Example below, i drew a line between “all users included in free plans” and “Give premade-templates a try”. and Miro Mind Map is the root. Can i change the root to “All users including free plans” and see the connection between availability and “give-pre-made templates” as the first nodes?

Regeneration Of Board Link (Consultant Account)

Hello, I am a consultant working with changing teams in multi-day sessions. Is there a way to revoke or re-generate anonymous guests links to public boards ? I need to restrict access to the boards after each meeting (so, basically sending a new link before each meeting).      Thanks,   Ariel

Pricing / License question - Miro for small, regular use, with occasional, inconsistent larger group use

Hello All, I have a pricing question.  Most of the time, my small team of 3-5 will be working in Miro.  But occasionally, we might need to open it up to a ground of 16 or so.  This would be a rare occurrence, at most.   What would be the most practical plan for this: small, regular use, with occasional, inconsistent larger group use.     Thank you, Seth

Moving Projects and all their boards from one account to another account

Hello All,  wonder if you can help.  We have a large number of projects with each project having many boards.  We would like to move the projects to different account teams but dont seem to have the ability to move an entire project.  Miro only allows boards to be moved.   Has anybody been faced with a similar dilemma and is there a solution for it.   Regards   Ron

JIRA Cards Bi-directional Sync (Updates made in JIRA don't reflect in Miro)

I have been using the jira cards integration with Miro. I typically use it to create JIRA issues directly from Miro; and occasionally also paste JIRA issue URLs into Miro. My cards show the status of the JIRA issue. However, I’ve noticed that status never updates in Miro even though I make changes in JIRA. The only way for me to keep things in sync right now is by replacing the existing miro card with a new card with the latest status, but that beats the whole purpose of the integration. What am I missing here? Is there something in the configuration process that I may have missed?

Problems with video chat app

Hi everybody, I’d like to share a problem I’m facing with the video chat. Maybe someone can help me to solve it. I’ve got a Consultant plan, and I need to video chat with a series of Anonimous Guest Editors t run my job. When I launch the video chat app I can see my own image in the small video frame, yet I can’t see (or hear) other participants, even though the videochat is running (In the videochat camera and microphone are on and there’s the button LEAVE visible). Technical requirements are ok (for me and for Guests), yet there is no chance to see or hear each orther. Did anyone have the same problem and could hepl me to puzzle it out? Thanks a lot Roberta

Is it possible here to analyze the working time spent on the assignment?

Hey. Is it possible here to analyze the working time spent on the assignment? I saw here only a timer that can be set for a certain amount of time. And in the activity section you can’t see anything about the time spent.  How can I invite users in guest mode? What is the difference between a guest and a regular user? Is it possible to make changes on the boards in the guest mode of operation and will it be clear who made these changes?

Board notifications

Currently, we are receiving updates on how people have changed the material on boards via email. For those of us already getting 100 emails a day, that is a bit clumsy. The Dropbox approach of icon notification in the bottom right-hand corner would be preferable - as that can tell us what is happening in real-time. The email notification can, of course, be kept as an option. Thanks

Cannot create team, I'm the administrator of the account

Hello. I cannot create teams. I own the account I'm trying to create a team in and I have the Consultant Plan. This is really bad user experience. Why is it so hidden? And yes, I have tried following the two methods on the "how to create a team in miro" page.   Why is it like this? This is extremely frustrating.

Team member isn't able to edit the board

I have a group of 11 collaborating on my white board and one person does not have the same functionality as the rest. I have created sticky notes for members to edit with their ideas. This member is only able to add a comment but does not have any other functionalities available to him. I have a free account and I’ve checked all the setting and can’t figure out the problem. Any insight or help would be much appreciated!

Access projects within my organisation

The organisation I work for uses Miro, and I was recently prompted to join and start collaborating with others. When I created my account using my work email address, I was directed to a page which listed all of the projects and/or teams within my organisation (presumably based on the domain name from my email - I’m not sure), which allowed me to join them.    Before joining any of these teams/projects, I closed my browser. The next time I logged into Miro, it seems a team had automatically been created for me, called “<MyEmailDomain> Team”, and I can no longer see any way to access the teams/projects within my organisation. I also dont have access to any premium features, however I’m not certain whether my organisation uses the premium version - I’m waiting on confirmation of this (I believe they do, as projects dont seem to be available on the free version, and I distinctly remember seeing various projects within my organisation displayed after registering.   So my question

How to create a timeline like the User Experience Design video

I noticed in the video at 2:18 they create a quick and simple timeline. https://academy.miro.com/learn/course/user-experience-design/running-online-workshops/video-walkthrough How do you accomplish that? I was looking for a function of the line tool to create a “point” that isn’t creating a bezier curve.
