PDF “Extract Pages” feature: Improve Miro performanceOpen

Hi,Considering how much PDFs weigh down Miro performance, I’m wondering if there’s a way of improving this?SituationRight now, each extracted PDF page still maintains the entirety of the PDF from wh/ it was extracted, thus making Miro boards wicked slow w/ redundant pages.SuggestionIf possible technically and not too disruptive usability-wise, could the “Extract Pages” feature actually be reconfigured to remove those pages that are not shown? This would not be that destructive since the “Extract Pages” feature already maintains intact the original multi-page PDF. UX-wise, some text to explain what’s going on and how it works may be helpful.Net NetThe way it is now, “Extract PDF” is a cool feature but creates unnecessary performace lag which is increasing complaints among my 40+ users.

Multiple timers on a boardDuplicate Idea (closed)

My team uses the timer feature to keep track of time boxes for agenda items (e.g. 45 min, 60 min), but sometimes also needs shorter timers within an agenda item for brainstorm or activity time. We have to stop the overall timer, set the shorter timer, then calculate minutes remaining and reset the overall timer.  Can we have the ability to use more than one timer on a Miro board?

Adjust images size to fit into the replaced image, when using "replace" commandOpen

I use a template with avatars and want people to replace the avatar images (grouped with other stuff like name tag etc) with their own photos using the “replace” function. But this doesn’t work well.It would be very handy if “replace” would adjust the uploaded image to fit into the size of the replaced object (in height or in width, no matter which). But if I replace the image, the outer size is kept the same (as it should) but if the new image is bigger than the original one, only a fragment of it is seen (it is cropped randomly). It’s impossible to fit the image into the existing size with a click or a menue command.Instead the participants must now crop the whole image and then understand how to scale the result down again, to fit it to the rest of the group. But as the image is part of a group like shapes and nametags, this ends up in a mess.I hope I explained the problem well enough, sorry! Thank you!I love miro!

How do we convert our inVision freehands into Miro boards?

Now that Miro has acquired inVision freehand, how do we convert our inVision freehand boards into Miro boards? Our company has far too many assets on inVision that can be manually converted so for our business to not be compromised significantly, we will need a conversion tool or method. Can someone at Miro please help us understand how to do this?

streamline sign-on process especially for SSOOpen

Our company just switched our Miro account to SSO and accessing my content got harder - particularly since we get signed out after a couple hours.  Request: implement as many of these as is feasible based on security requirementsRemember how I normally log in from this browser or app -- don’t make me click on “sign on with SSO” every time Remember my email address for SSO for as long as possible, even if that is just a day -- so I don’t have to enter my email address multiple times per day Automatically trigger the customer’s SSO, where I may also have to enter credentials -- so that I can get to my Miro content as quickly as possible (and if I’m on my VPN I don’t need to do anything) Encourage your customers to have longer idle time limits configured

Draw Custom ShapesOpen

I’ve reviewed the other “Custom Shape” ideas, and they’re interesting to me, but not exactly what I was looking for, so submitting something specific.I really like the standard shapes MIRO offers, but sometimes I need more. I’d like the ability to draw a custom shape. Something simple with straight lines and curved lines (Bezier tools) that snap together when they near each other would be great. Allow import of an image if “tracing” a shape that looks familiar would be amazing too (image not needed in final shape).Once the shape is drawn, it should have the same fill and border thickness controls of the standard MIRO objects. Keep it dead simple, these controls are highly appealing. Maybe add some text positioning hints/boundaries if the shape gets a bit crazy, but again, should largely follow the MIRO standard shapes. Finally, allow positioning of default anchor points (but continue to allow the actual anchors to be adjustable just like standard MIRO shapes).I should be able to share

Custom shapesOpen

There should be a feature for creating custom shapes or merging multiple different shapes, like drawing with the pen tool in InDesign. I love how user friendly and collaborative Miro is, but it’s difficult for me to highlight certain areas on say, a floor plan, with only the given shapes. This could be done like drawing with the pen tool, using a point to point method or by using the marker and being able to sketch over that area and fill the shape in the middle.

Ability to continue playing video while working on boardOpen

I was conducting a workshop recently where people had to respond to a video in real time using post-its. The people in the workshop found when they clicked off the video it stopped totally and they had to press play from the beginning again. Having the ability to work on the board while a video is playing allows for more real time chat and feedback. Otherwise you have to tell people to get a pen and paper, take down all their ideas and write them down after, which isn’t as fast. It would be so cool if Miro fixed this!

Board Optimization with Outside Objects

The goal is to optimize the board and create inputs/objects outside of Miro (Adobe Creative Cloud). I have been using Miro for 2 years and have never run into these issues when building with Miro objects. Lately it feels as the boards run more slowly, which makes it difficult to do more creative and interesting board builds. Attempts:*All of these implementations are optimized, no file above 5MB. I also have serious hardware so its not a hardware issue*I have created 20 SVG Vector Images to move around the Board = BOARD SLOW(Unusable) A Vector PDF to scale and move around the board, 3 PDFs to connect to each other = BOARD SLOW PNG images are ok but there is a cap on sizing. So once scaled they possibly loose quality = BOARD DECENT SPEED JPG images are ok but there is a cap on sizing. So once scaled they possibly loose quality = BOARD DECENT SPEEDSince Miro doesn’t give information on which objects cause the issue or give scale/resolution recommendations, I figure I would ask the commun

New app: Mapsy – Create a mind map node from a Card, Shape, Sticky Note, or Text

I have been using the Miro Assist Expand with ideas action on mind map nodes and am loving it. However, what has frustrated me is, when I have another objects type, e.g., a sticky note from a brainstorming activity and I want to turn it into a mind map, I have to copy the text, create a mind map, and paste the text into the mind map – that is just too many steps.Given there was no “switch type” action to convert objects into mind maps, but there is CRUD (create, read, update, delete) mind map in the Miro SDK in an experimental release, I had the idea to take @Yash's open-source Cardsy app (that makes cards from other objects) and use it to make a one-click solution to create mind map nodes from other objects.Thanks to @Max Harper for assisting with the final lines of code, you can try it our for yourself here.Install linkThe install link can be found here → https://linktr.ee/realrobertjohnsonNote:This is an unofficial Miro app. You may also be blocked from installing it from your Miro

[Bug] Miro board loading endlessly on multiple browsers and devices

I have been documenting in a Miro board for my research. I made a frame to some of the pictures & texts in the board and duplicated the frame. Suddenly a prompt showed up saying “syncing…please wait”. I waited for a few minutes until the prompt asked me to reload. I clicked on the reload button and the board started to load endlessly. I tried opening the board in multiple browsers and modes (including incognito), as well as in the Miro app on my iPad. None of these worked. I have shared the board to the Miro Support Team. Could you please resolve this issue?

Change the comment icon and lock its size for a more robust UML schemes workflowOpen

Hi Miro Team!As a Games Development studio, we have integrated Miro into most of our processes. In one place where we really tried to push Miro was to use it as a UML scheme board and to stop using dedicated UML tools.But unfortunately, there isn’t a convenient way to put comments in Miro UML boards 😭. All that we ask for, is:The ability to change the icon of comment to dot, and lock it size so it wouldn't scale when we zoom in/out. For example, this is a standard comment bubble: As soon as you zoom out it become a messss:  Now 😀 let’s imagine a perfect board…. where you can change the comment icon to a dot/small circle and lock it size 😍  It’s one of those little things that make life better.Thank you!

[RESOLVED] Text Not Visible When Editing Within Shape

I recently encountered this issue, and was curious if anyone can provide insight.When placing a shape, then double-clicking the shape to enter text within the shape, the text entry cursor initially appears outside of the shape. If I continue entering text and click outside of the shape to complete my entry, the text appears inside of the shape. If I double-click again to edit the text, the entry field appears outside of the shape once again. However, if I double-click to edit, then click and drag the shape while in “text edit mode” the text with the blinking cursor appears within the shape and I can proceed to edit text within the shape, as I would typically expect.Edit: At certain zoom levels and text size combinations, the text is not visible at all. It was only until I zoomed in while capturing these photos that I noticed the text was displaced outside of the shape.Text Displaced Outside of ShapeText Reappears in Proper Location
